A US Representative from Iowa says California’s new ban on gas-powered vehicle sales by 2035 is an out-of-touch energy policy that will hurt Midwestern farmers.
Republican Ashley Hinson tells Brownfield the ban will dwindle a key market for the biofuels industry and corn farmers. “This is an unhealthy obsession with electric vehicles,” she said. “We need an all-of-the-above energy strategy for consumers. That means oil and gas, ethanol, and natural gas.”
Hinson says the demand isn’t there for permanent EV sales.
