EV mandates to phase out gas-powered cars collide with House Republicans -
The House Energy and Commerce Committee has passed a trio of GOP-led measures to scuttle rules that would phase out gas-powered cars in California and similar proposals by the Biden administration, and block changes to a federal biofuels program that shower subsidies on EV manufacturers.
Republicans said the state policy is a national issue because many blue states follow California’s lead on environmental rules, thus manipulating the market. New Jersey Democratic Rep. Frank Pallone, ranking member of Energy and Commerce, called the GOP measures “shortsighted and politically motivated.”
Republicans say that China’s dominance over critical minerals needed for EV batteries means that more EVs — not less — is the real threat.
