Republican legislators in Wyoming are looking to pass a law to ban electric vehicles from 2035, in defiance of other states' moves in the opposite direction.

, those putting it forward recognize that its intention is largely symbolic.

"One might even say tongue-in-cheek, but obviously it's a very serious issue that deserves some public discussion," Boner told the Cowboy State Daily, a local news outlet."I'm interested in making sure that the solutions that some folks want to the so-called climate crisis are actually practical in real life. I just don't appreciate when other states try to force technology that isn't ready.

"The Legislature would be saying: 'If you don't like our petroleum cars, well, we don't like your electric cars,'" Anderson said. Perhaps telling of that tongue-in-cheek defiance of the 15 other states, including California, which have moved to outlaw new gasoline car sales, the final clause of the bill stipulates a copy be sent toTwo men visiting Jackson, Wyoming, inspect the city's electric-vehicle charging station on September 23, 2014. A new bill argues that the state's vast highways and lack of EV charging infrastructure make use of the vehicles “impracticable.

The bill also cautions that the minerals used in electric-vehicle batteries"are not easily recyclable or disposable," which would mean municipal landfills in Wyoming would have to develop safe disposal practices.

They banning things .. for FREEDOM!! 😂😂

Just out of curiosity: does „vehicles“ in this context also include TRAINS…?

'I'm dying my beard and eyebrows, in defiance of the march of time'.

They look like they could have also rebelled against the lightbulb!!!

GOPGovs should follow suit with what’s left of them.

Banning electric cars is as stupid as banning gas powered cars...governments run by republicans & especially democrats just turn to dictatorial, unconstitutional, anti-freedom powers.

Good

Invest in buggy whips.

Follow the money.

Well the battery is real bad on the environment

I thought this was supposed to be the party of limited government?

These six guys are going to tell the other guy in Wyoming he can't drive an EV.

This will piss off Elon big time.

GOP brothers challenging Marx brothers.

Amazing.

You know who sponsors them 😂

Then, then, complain about gas prices because it is the democrats fault

I guess they will be SOL if there aren't any gas or diesel vehicles made by then.

Just ban all cars while your at. Horse and buggy only in Wyoming

I bet they would oppose putting electricity into homes if it was possible.

Wyoming Moves To Ban Sales Of New Electric Vehicles By 2035We examine the draft legislation in the state of Wyoming that proposes a ban on selling new electric vehicles in the state by 2035. Erm. Won’t that just mean people go out to neighbouring states and buy there and drive back, paying sales taxes in next state🤷‍♂️ next they’ll be after re instituting horse drawn carriages 😂 Sounds like Wyoming’s entry into the 2023 Darwin awards (political section) Almost all OEMs are planning to end production of ICE vehicles by 2040. Wyoming doesn’t think this will influence that direction. Most likely hoping other large oil centric states will adopt the same policy and get OEMs to reconsider their strategies
