Wyoming, In The United States, Goes Against The Global Trend To Increase Demand For Zero-Emission Vehicles

In the U.S., the state of Wyoming has the disappointing desire to ban the sale of electric cars. Going against the global trend that aims to increase demand for zero-emission vehicles, the state decided to introduce a law to gradually limit the purchase of electrified vehicles by 2035. The measure was created in response to laws implemented in California and New York, which prohibit the sale of new combustion-only cars for 12 years.

Did The Committee Accept The Implementation Of The Law That Limits The Purchase Of Electric Cars?

Initially, the document made with the collaboration of Republican Senator Jim Anderson had some valid arguments. Still, as expected, the resolution fell during the meeting of the Wyoming Minerals, Business and Economic Development Committee. The protection of the culture of rural communities in the region – which do not even have internet access – is one of the arguments used in the speech for the prohibition of selling electric cars.

The main concern, in this regard, is the threat to local employment, since Wyoming is the eighth largest oil producer in the U.S. Thus, the lack of demand for gasoline created by the expansion of electric cars would affect job availability in the oil and gas sector.
