At least eight states are planning to ban the sale of new gas-powered cars in the next decade - and others are considering joining them.
Only zero-emission vehicles can be sold in participating states beginning from the 2035 model year, according to the Advanced Clean Cars II legislation.
The rule, which was first adopted by California, means that automakers and dealerships would be banned from selling new gas cars in these states from that point onwards.

Help us, PRESIDENT TRUMP!
Its hard to understand how dumb pols can be.
Crazy 8. EVIL TOTALITARIAN individuals in state “governments” eliminate.
Pols aren’t dumb. Voters are.
And go where?
There is not a truly red state in this nation.
We are not voting-with-our-feet our way out of this.
The rationality is the politicians generally believes it will be reversed when he leaves, but he will make a lot of money in the meantime.
If the voters are so dumb...
Why does Deep State have to steal elections?!?
States rights. Wrong states to live.
8 states headed for total destruction. Tha progressive national socialist movement plans to destroy America.
Put a fence around those states and let them sort it out amongst themselves.
Still looking for the section in the article that details how these states are expamding power plants and upgrading their grids.
This is good for the GOPe crooks though, they can run on undoing Xiden’s work and instead do nothing while making themselves rich, SOP.
The funny part is, they are trying to put a fence around themselves, at least financially. CA is trying to impose ongoing taxes on residents that move to another state.
Streets of Havana come to mind.
“...automakers and dealerships would be banned from selling new gas cars in these states from that point onwards.”
Then they won’t sell any. Currently the new wonder cars are sitting on the show room floors. If they take the opportunity to purchase gas driven cars or fuel, then they are just as worthless. Did you know that a car can run on mineral spirits paint thinner? Just go down to the local store, or buy it on line, and get some octane boost and you’ve got enough to go to the local supermarket.
And when enough people are put in problems concerning their pocketbooks, the politicians will hear about it on the phone, in the news (riots), or at the polls. Then everyone will be out of a job.

“ Help us, PRESIDENT TRUMP!”
As President Trump is not in a position to fix all the messed up libtard states and their screwed up governments.
More info in article...
“According to personal finance site Money, California was the first state to adopt the Advanced Clean Cars II rule, which will put a complete ban to new sales of gas-powered cars by 2035.
It said California - run by governer Gavin Newsom - plans specify that 35 percent of all new car sales will need to be zero-emission by 2026, rising to 68 percent by 2030.
Rhode Island was the most recent state to join the list of states pledging to ban the sale of gas-powered cars, joining Maryland, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon and Washington.
According to the site, the District of Columbia has also made the commitment.
Other states have adopted versions of the legislation, but not yet pledged to ban gas-powered cars entirely by that date.
For example, Delaware and Colorado last year finalized rules that would require 82 percent of new cars to be zero-emissions vehicles in 2032, but officials have not adopted 2035 bans.
New Mexico, meanwhile, announced in July that it will set annual targets for the sale of zero-emission vehicles and may adopt parts of the Advanced Clean Cars II legislation. But it has not yet endorsed the 2035 ban.”
