The Roberts Court May Force You to Drive an EV

Would the Supreme Court view the Biden administrationโ€™s new plan to wreck the American automotive industry as another executive branch power grab?

The Biden administration has just required that the majority of automotive vehicles manufactured be electric by 2032, inflicting upon the American people troublesome cars whose price is an exorbitant $53,500 on average and that cost a fortune to repair. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) warned that the move will โ€œdevastate auto manufacturers.โ€

While electric vehicles (EVs) totaled less than 8 percent of sales of new cars last year, the Biden rule demands that they reach as much as 56 percent in less than a decade and as much as 36 percent for plug-in hybrid vehicles. The regulatory method to be employed is mandating that automakers cut carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions by more than half by eight years from now. Far sooner than that as a result, just several years down the road, Americans may no longer be able to afford an ordinary gasoline-powered vehicle.

The extremism of the new regulations is a direct result of something many Americans likely didnโ€™t think had anything to do with revolutionizing and dictating the ways they get themselves from point A to point Bโ€”2022โ€™s so-called Inflation Reduction Act (IRA).

While doing nothing to reduce inflation, the law acted as step one of the implementation of President Joe Bidenโ€™s Green New Deal, giving the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) explicit powers regarding greenhouse gases and forcing solar, wind, and other expensive alternatives to fossil fuels on the private sector. The IRAโ€™s Title VI amended the Clean Air Act to identify by name pollutants, including CO2, so the EPA would have congressional authorization to regulate them and shift to pricier green forms of energy.

Overlaid on the new powers were massive amounts of new taxpayer cash, with the act spending approximately $370 billion in incentives for solar panels, EVs, and other environmentalist wares that canโ€™t make it in the market. Demand for electric transportation, meanwhile, looks unpromising, with Ford reducing EV manufacturing to the tune of the withdrawal of $12 billion and Toyota looking more to hybrids than EVs.
