- ⚡ President Trump has signed three pieces of legislation to permanently end California's ban on gas-powered cars scheduled for 2035.
- 🎯 This action also nullifies similar mandates in a dozen other blue states that were set to follow California's lead.
- 💡 The ban was enacted through the Congressional Review Act, preventing judicial review or similar future executive orders.
California's Mandate and Its Origins
- 🚗 California's ban, issued by Governor Gavin Newsom, would have dictated the types of vehicles automakers were forced to manufacture nationwide.
- 🚫 Newsom's motivation for the ban is linked to the 2020 wildfires, where he controversially blamed California drivers for worsening the situation.
- 🗣️ The ban was an executive action, not voted on by the legislature or Congress, and aimed to appease the progressive wing of the Democrat party.
Bipartisan Support for Reversal
- ✅ Congressman Kevin Kiley introduced the resolution to reverse the ban, which received bipartisan support, including 35 Democratic votes in the House.
- 🧠 This bipartisan backing is seen as a sign of returning common sense to both California and the nation.
- 🏆 The reversal is celebrated as a win for the auto industry, American freedom, and sanity in California.
