Description
A growing number of red states are trying to limit the sales of electric
vehicles through new taxes, fees, and laws. Those moves have infuriated
EV advocates and created barriers to President Joe Biden’s efforts to
decarbonize the transportation sector through widespread EV adoption.
POLITICO’s E&E News reporter Adam Aton breaks down why red states are
resisting EV adoption and the potential impact of their efforts.
