Look up thos congresspersons' donor history

Bet my bottom dollar they're getting donations from groups that tie back to the auto industry

Get the fucking money out of politics

I'd argue the oil and gas industry, not auto. Lots of auto industry players like GM, Ford, Honda, Toyota are selling EV's. There's a market for them, people want them, there's money on the table. Why would auto not want that.

But they don't want to. They're only selling EVs of any sort to stay competitive and compliant with regulation. Toyota has all but said fuck EVs.
