Hey there, fellow Republicans! It’s time to shed some light on a situation that’s got our blood boiling. You remember Ann Carlson, don’t you? Yeah, that’s the one. President Biden’s former pick to lead the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) who failed the Senate confirmation process. But guess what? She’s still running the show, calling the shots, and pushing Biden’s radical climate agenda despite not getting the Senate’s approval.
The White House withdrew Carlson’s nomination in May amid strong criticism from lawmakers and industry groups due to her past climate activism. But that hasn’t stopped her from being the agency’s acting administrator, making significant policy decisions that could cost American taxpayers over $100 billion.
She was quick to roll out those aggressive federal fuel efficiency standards that automakers are against. They demand passenger cars and light trucks to improve fuel efficiency by 2% and 4%, respectively, starting in 2027. And get this, by 2032, they want the average U.S. fleet fuel economy to reach a whopping 58 miles per gallon, which would be more than 100% higher than what we have now.
Now, you might be thinking, “”Hey, more fuel-efficient cars sound great for the environment!”” But hold your horses, because there’s more to this story. The so-called Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards might curb carbon emissions and reduce oil dependence, but at what cost? These standards could drive up car prices and make electric vehicles look affordable, even though they’re still way more expensive than our trusty gas-powered cars.
The Biden administration is all about pushing electric vehicles nationwide, but they’re forgetting that everyday Americans will end up footing the bill. It’s outrageous that despite the Senate rejecting Carlson, she’s still in charge, trying to impose the most draconian climate agenda ever.
We can’t let this slide. We need to stand together and demand accountability. Let’s make our voices heard and show President Biden that we won’t stand for this radical agenda. It’s time to put America first and protect our rights, our pocketbooks, and our freedom!
