Manchin said the EPA\u2019s ambitious goal of ensuring that 67% of new cars sold will be all-electric was market manipulation and a \u201cTrojan horse\u201d to increase America\u2019s reliance on China for critical minerals. He urged Congress to overturn the rules.<\/p>\n<div id=\"press\">\n<p>\u201cThe EPA is lying to Americans with false claims about how their manipulation of the market to boost EVs will help American energy security,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.manchin.senate.gov\/newsroom\/press-releases\/manchin-statement-on-epas-radical-vehicle-emissions-standards\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Manchin<\/a> said. \u201cIn reality, this is a Trojan horse. To meet these timelines will mean strengthening our reliance on minerals and technologies controlled by the Chinese. Taken in concert with the clear violation of the [Inflation Reduction Act] to undermine provisions that would actually secure these supply chains, this Administration is taking steps that will only result in a more energy secure and powerful China. I don\u2019t believe that making progress on climate change should come at the expense of our national and energy security. I fully support Congress overturning these dangerous EPA regulations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this month, the administration rolled out a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/biden-admin-to-propose-rules-to-drastically-increase-ev-sales-crack-down-on-tailpipe-emissions-report\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">proposed<\/a> regulations package meant to drastically increase electric vehicle sales, as The Daily Wire reported. The rules would aim to make sure that EVs make up fully two-thirds of all new cars on the market by 2032. The radical new regulations would represent a quantum leap in EV sales; electric cars made up just 5.8% of all new vehicles sold.<\/p>\n<p>Last week, the administration rolled out new regulations for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/biden-admin-unveils-proposal-for-landmark-nationwide-crackdown-on-gas-cars\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tailpipe emissions<\/a> meant to facilitate the transition. The \u201cmore stringent\u201d standards released by the agency would\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/system\/files\/documents\/2023-04\/lmdv-multi-pollutant-emissions-my-2027-nprm-2023-04.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">induce<\/a>\u00a0a 56% decrease in greenhouse gas emissions for light-duty vehicles as well as a 44% decrease for medium-duty vehicles, while similar standards were\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.epa.gov\/system\/files\/documents\/2023-04\/hd-ghg-veh-phase-3-nprm-2023-04.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">introduced<\/a>\u00a0for heavy-duty vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>The EPA asserted that the proposed standards would decrease carbon dioxide emissions by 10 billion tons over the next three decades and produce as much as $1.6 trillion in value. Skeptics, on the other hand, contend that the move would ignore widespread desires for affordable and reliable conventional vehicles.<\/p>\n<p>Manchin, meanwhile, has become a thorn in the side of the administration\u2019s aggressive environmental policymaking. The critical vote that helped pass the $740 billion Inflation Reduction Act, Manchin has frequently criticized how the Executive Branch is implementing the law. Most recently, he <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/manchin-blasts-biden-admin-over-new-ev-tax-credit-regulations\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">blasted<\/a> a proposed rule that would loosen regulations on the electric vehicle tax credit.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYet again \u2013 the guidance released by the Department of the Treasury completely ignores the intent of the Inflation Reduction Act,\u201d Manchin said. \u201cIt is horrific that the Administration continues to ignore the purpose of the law which is to bring manufacturing back to America and ensure we have reliable and secure supply chains. American tax dollars should not be used to support manufacturing jobs overseas. It is a pathetic excuse to spend more taxpayer dollars as quickly as possible and further cedes control to the Chinese Communist Party in the process.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><b data-stringify-type=\"bold\"><a class=\"c-link c-link--focus-visible\" href=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https:\/\/onelink.to\/dwapp\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\">CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILY WIRE APP<\/a><\/b><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe guidance includes a 60-day comment period and I ask for every American to comment,\u201d he added. \u201cMy comment is simple: stop this now \u2013 just follow the law.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) slammed the Biden administration\u2019s new EPA rules around electric vehicles and tailpipe emissions.
