Wyoming EV Sales Phase Out Proposal

[Jac]

A Wyoming state legislator proposes phasing out EVs in coming years to protect the state’s fossil fuel industry

"The proliferation of electric vehicles at the expense of gas-powered vehicles will have deleterious impacts on Wyoming's communities and will be detrimental to Wyoming's economy and the ability for the country to efficiently engage in commerce," the resolution reads.

"Phasing out the sale of new electric vehicles in Wyoming by 2035 will ensure the stability of Wyoming's oil and gas industry and will help preserve the country's critical minerals for vital purposes."

It’s a great state for a LLc , no business tax
4% sales tax on vec

You may pay all the tax you wish as long as you get something in return.

Sounds like a desperate cry for relevancy/help. Must be running for re-election soon.

Desperate indeed

Go for it. If that’s what the people who elected him want him to do then he’s doing his job. If it’s not then he won’t get re-elected. No different than CA banning the sale of new ICE vehicles after 2030.

Did anyone tell them they can use the coal and natural gas to generate electricity and charge their EVs?

Facts and common sense are not acceptable

These computers are killing the typewriter industry. Need to get rid of them.

People should crack a history book. Someone always tries to hold back technological progress and it never works.

That’s the party of small government

At the end of the day neither party is about small government or the interests of the people.

Market for an upfitter to convert any EV into a hybrid.

News at 10: politician caught grandstanding!!! At least it's entertaining.

Now, the real interesting bit is that it shows that folks living off fossil fuel extraction seem genuinely worried about EVs. So, the EV revolution is working. Good.
