Texas Rep. Chip Roy Blasts Democrats Over Electric Vehicle Policies: “Magic Energy Tree” Amid Trump’s Coal Revival
Story by Wendy Vasquez • 12h
In a fiery floor speech, Texas Representative Chip Roy delivered a scathing critique of Democratic policies promoting electric vehicles (EVs), questioning the logic behind their implementation and highlighting the potential consequences for American energy independence and the economy.
Roy's remarks centered on what he described as a disconnect between the push for EVs and the realities of energy production.
"I'm always amazed with my colleagues on the other side of the aisle," Roy stated, "Ignore the fact that these EVs require power. Somehow, they get charged from the magic fairy dust of a magic energy tree, I mean, what? What are we talking about here?"
He emphasized the reliance on traditional energy sources, such as coal and natural gas, for electricity generation, both domestically and globally.
