Biden Hits the Brakes on EV Transition

Biden Hits the Brakes on EV Transition
 
The Biden administration is considering scaling back requirements for electric vehicle production in the U.S. due to challenges in supply chains, consumer demand, and infrastructure.

The adjustment comes amidst concerns about the feasibility of the initial ambitious goals and the need to balance environmental objectives with economic realities, particularly in an election year where Biden seeks union support.
 
“Give the market and supply chains a chance to catch up, maintain a customer’s ability to choose, let more public charging come online, let the industrial credits and Inflation Reduction Act do their thing and impact the industrial shift,” Alliance for Automotive Innovation CEO John Bozzella said.
The proposed changes aim to allow for a more gradual transition while ensuring reductions in emissions and economic benefits.

The shift is seen as a pragmatic move to address practical constraints and political considerations, especially in key battleground states like Michigan.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

He isn't going to hit the brakes on jack sh*t!  It will be the same kind of lies as are his immigration "brakes." *****rollingeyes*****

It's an election year and Biden is trying to mitigate something that's hurting him. As soon as the election is over he fully intends to come back full retard for EVs.

I don't believe Biden.  He's being disingenuous and duplicitous.  It's a lame, empty, meaningless election ploy.  Electricity bills don't lie.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.
