Biden Admin Grants California Permission To Ban New Gas Car Sales By 2035
The Biden administration has officially permitted California to ban new gas car sales in the Golden State by 2035.
California set a strict emissions standard that would ban new gas cars in the state by 2035, but officials needed to obtain a waiver from the
Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to proceed with the mandate.
The EPA on Wednesday announced that it would approve two waivers under the Clean Air Act that grant California permission to phase out gas cars in
the state-one of President Biden's final acts pushing the auto industry into the green energy sector.
One waiver grants California's near-future request to mandate that 35% of new cars and light-duty truck sales have zero emissions by 2026 and achieve
90% below current emissions by 2027.
The other EPA waiver allows California officials to mandate that all new car sales be zero-emission within the decade - the most strict EV mandate in
the country.
However, the waivers could soon be revoked by President-elect Trump, who is reportedly planning to rescind both federal EV requirements and any
waiver issued for California by the Biden administration.
"Fresh off imposing his insane, job-killing electric vehicle mandate at the federal level, Crooked Joe Biden is preparing to slaughter the remnants
of the U.S. auto industry by approving California's waiver request outlawing the sale of all gasoline-powered automobiles," incoming White House
press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Fox News Digital during the campaign.
EPA Administrator Michael Regan said that the waivers will "protect its residents from dangerous air pollution coming from mobile sources like cars
and trucks."
However, American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers CEO and President Chet Thompson described the mandate as "unlawful."
"Contrary to claims on the campaign trail that they would never tell Americans what kinds of cars we have to drive, the Biden-Harris EPA just did
exactly that by green-lighting California's ban on sales of all new gas and traditional hybrid vehicles," Thompson said.
"These policies will harm consumers - millions of whom don't even live in California - by taking away their ability to buy new gas cars in their home
states and raising vehicle and transportation costs."
