Leader Rodgers Urges NHTSA to Stop Making Cars Unaffordable and Ceding America's Auto Leadership to China

Press Release

Date: July 28, 2023
Location: Washington, D.C.
Issues: Transportation

"At a time when prices for new vehicles are at all-time highs, NHTSA's new fuel economy standards will add even more to the price tag, depriving people of safe, affordable vehicles. These new penalties put an additional burden on manufacturers as well, which will ultimately be passed along to the hardworking people of this county. This is another part of President Biden's full regulatory assault to force Americans to buy unaffordable electric vehicles and cede our automotive future to China.

Increasing costs, limiting people's choices, and decimating our energy independence is not a solution to beat China. If the Biden Administration is serious about road safety, affordability, and beating China, it should work to secure our supply chains, reduce regulatory burdens, and unleash American energy."
