U.S. Congressman Max Miller Votes to Overturn EPA’s Electric Vehicle Near Mandate

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Congressman Max Miller (OH-07) today voted to overturn the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) extreme emissions standard for vehicles that would, in effect, mandate nearly two-thirds of new cars and 40% of new trucks sold in the United States to be electric by 2032. The resolution to nullify the rule passed the House of Representatives by a vote of 215 – 191.  

“The Biden-Harris administration’s policies have made life more expensive for Americans, and the EPA’s electric vehicle near mandate is another example of out-of-touch policy from Washington that will set Americans back,” said Congressman Miller. “Today, I was proud to push back on the Biden-Harris EPA’s extreme agenda. Now is not the time for more unnecessary and burdensome overreach by the federal government. Ohioans have had enough.”
