in an op-ed for Fox News that his organization is mounting a legal challenge against the Biden administration’s latest regulatory push for electric vehicles .the strictest tailpipe emissions regulation in the agency’s history. The proposal would require that up to two-thirds of all vehicles sold in the United States be electric by 2032.
Ortiz’s op-ed explains the economic impracticality of Biden’s EV policy, its unpopularity with consumers, and its danger to the environment it purports to protect.Even with hundreds of billions of taxpayer dollars, American consumers haven’t warmed to electric vehicles. Only half to two-thirds of electric car owners purchase electric again – a terrible customer retention rate.
Which energy source would you rather the country be reliant on: 1) oil, which we have more than enough of at home if the government would get out of the way, or 2) rare earth metals that don’t exist in the U.S.? The “kicker,” Ortiz writes, is that this push for electric vehicles “would actually be bad for the environment.”
“Consider that 70% of cobalt needed for lithium-ion batteries comes from the Democratic Republic of the Congo, where children hand dig in crowded, primitive mines to try to service the West’s insatiable demand,” he notes.”
Finally someone is stepping up
