Leaders of Eight Left-Wing States Come Up with Scheme to Increase Electric Car Purchases

(Polaris.com) Progressive leaders in eight “dark blue” states who are unhappy with the tiny number of “zero emission vehicles” on the road are joining together on a plan to correct the “problem.” The Wall Street Journal reports that officials in California, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island and Vermont – states that collectively represent 28 percent of the auto market – will use the old carrot-and-stick routine to increase sales of zero emission vehicles to 3.3 million by 2025.
