Washington, D.C. - Today, President Donald Trump signed vital legislationthat repeals California’s nationwide electric vehicle mandate which would have effectively banned new gasoline-powered cars by 2035. The measure revokes an Environmental Protection Agency waiver offered to California, and adopted in 11 other states allowing them to bypass federal standards.
“This wasn’t just a California rule — it was a back-door federal EV mandate that working families didn’t want,” said Daniel Turner, Founder and Executive Director for Power The Future. “This forced mandate drove up prices and was so unpopular that even when Joe Biden’s party controlled Washington, they didn’t try to pass it. The message is simple: Americans don’t want politicians bought by the green agenda telling our families what to buy or what to drive.”
The bill repealing California’s EV mandate passed Congress with bipartisan support with a vote of 264-164 in the House and 51-44 in the Senate.
