7 O&G Associations Join Lawsuit Against EPA’s Forced EV Rule

Earlier this month, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) announced new proposed federal vehicle emissions standards that will force Americans to give up driving gasoline and diesel-powered vehicles and instead switch to electric vehicles (see Biden EPA Plan Forces People to Buy Expensive Electric Vehicles). The Biden EPA said the new standards will “accelerate the ongoing transition to a clean vehicles future and tackle the climate crisis.” The Bidenistas intentionally use inflammatory language, calling EVs “clean” vehicles, as opposed to fossil energy vehicles which, by inference, are “dirty.” They also claim the new standards will tackle the “climate crisis”--perpetuating an unproven theory that mankind is causing the earth to catastrophically warm. Seven major oil and gas associations from three states--Texas, Oklahoma, and Louisiana--have joined a lawsuit to fight this illegal move by the EPA and NHTSA.
