New York green car law has auto dealers fired up as looming deadline doesn’t match ‘reality’: ‘Don’t destroy the market’
Story by Carl Campanile • 10h

A Hochul administration green rule requiring that 35% of 2026 model cars sold in the state to be “emissions free” is an unrealistic bust, auto dealers claim.

The Advance Clean Cars II mandate calls for all autos to be free of fossil fuel emissions by 2035, ratcheting up the percentage each year.

But New York’s auto dealers said the deadline to meet those goals of weening drivers off gas-powered cars to electric vehicles is pie in the sky.
 
“The deadlines don’t match the reality,” said Jack Weidinger, chairman of the Greater Automobile Dealers Association of NY, who owns a Cadillac dealership in Great Neck.

Like good democrats everywhere, reality is a non-issue for NY politicians.  They will ignore it and when the democrat craze de jour blows up, they and the MSM will have Trump to blame.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.


Emissions free! (It doesn't run, but no emissions!)

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
