A new grassroots coalition has formed to push back against the Biden Administration war against consumer-chosen, taxpayer-neutral motor vehicle choices in the United States. As such, it is a new battleground against the industrial climate complex (including major car companies) that is at odds with consumers, taxpayers, and freedom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here is the pitch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tell Biden To Back Off America\u2019s Cars<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Biden administration is moving swiftly to get rid of gas-fueled cars<\/em>\u2013essentially through abolition<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A new proposed rule from Biden\u2019s EPA would allow American automakers to have only ONE THIRD<\/strong> of their total yearly production be traditional gas and diesel powered vehilces<\/em>, while forcing the remaining TWO THIRDS<\/strong> of all automobiles produced in America to be electric powered.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This proposed regulation, among others, are depriving the American public of vehicle choice that most fits their lifestyle and could easily affect economic growth in this country by stifling transportation. This is especially true when only one-third of Americans would consider purchasing an electric vehicle<\/a>.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Take action today<\/strong> and send a message directly to the White House<\/em> using this form to tell Biden and his cabinet what you think of their plans to all but outlaw private car ownership in America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ensure American families have accesss to vehicles they can afford and suit their needs.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

WASHINGTON DC (09\/12\/2023) \u2013 Today, the Institute for Energy Research and 31 other national and state-based organizations launched the Save Our Cars Coalition<\/em><\/a>. The coalition will fight to preserve and expand consumer choice in the selection of cars and trucks and ensure that all Americans will continue to benefit from them, as they have for more than a hundred years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Biden administration and California Governor Gavin Newsom have launched two different regulatory programs directed at gradually eliminating the sales of gasoline-powered cars and mandating the sale of electric vehicles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Save Our Cars Coalition will alert and educate the public to the threats posed by these and other harmful regulatory programs adding more to the price tag of vehicles \u2013 which are already at record highs \u2013 and eventually eliminating gas-powered cars and trucks altogether.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thomas Pyle, president of the Institute for Energy Research, issued the following statement:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cI am proud to join the Save Our Cars Coalition, which will fight to preserve the ability for all Americans to choose the cars and trucks that best suit their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Biden administration and the State of California want to ban cars and trucks powered by gasoline and diesel and replace them with electric vehicles. Past regulatory efforts have already had an impact on the price of new cars and trucks \u2013 which are at record highs. These regulations will make it even harder for people to buy and enjoy a car or truck by making them even more expensive and by reducing the number and types of automobiles available in the market. This is a feature, not a bug, of these rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a nation as expansive as the United States, cars are not merely vehicles, they are integral to the American way of life. They play a pivotal role in our daily lives, especially in suburban and rural settings. This modern-day Prohibition would outlaw a product and a value \u2013 in this case, gasoline-powered cars and trucks that have created personal mobility on an unprecedented scale \u2013 that it cannot persuade people to forego themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The simple reality is that this aggressive government assault is intended specifically to make cars and trucks much, much more expensive and therefore available only in much smaller numbers to much wealthier consumers. This is not about the environment; it is about personal freedom and mobility.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A timeline of the whole-of-government approach to increase the cost of gas-powered vehicles relative to their EV counterparts is as follows:<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
