New York is ordering all new passenger cars, pickup trucks, school buses, and SUVs sold in the state to be zero emissions by 2035, with Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) saying Thursday she is directing state regulators to expedite the changes.
Officials say the move to electric vehicles (EVs) is aimed at “cutting down on greenhouse gas emissions” in a direct follow to California’s recently approved regulations mandating the same social orders.
As Breitbart News reported, the State of California confirmed a decision last month made by Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) in 2020 to ban the sale of gasoline-powered cars in the state by 2035, a climate goal that stands to close businesses, cut jobs, and increase strain on the power grid.
