Iowa Senator Chuck Grassley says legislation mandating that only electric vehicles can sold in the U.S. by the year 2035 is a “ridiculous” idea.
“There’s no doubt that Americans will want to choose electric cars in the future,” Grassley says. “But a mandate by the government is something entirely different than Americans voluntarily choosing it.”
Grassley says the Zero-Emissions Vehicles Act introduced in the Senate would eliminate the need for ethanol and biodiesel and devastate the ag economy.
