This is going to be something to watch.

Will this be the thing that destroys the state?

Newsom and the people in Sacramento are psychopaths.

Can I buy a gasoline powered vehicle in Nevada and import it into the state? Or will they prohibit me from registering it?

“California will now be the only government in the world that mandates zero-emission vehicles. It is unique.”

"Newsom and the people in Sacramento are psychopaths."

Newsom and the people in Sacramento are psychopathic traitors.

if there was a constitution, it would be interesting to test the constitutionality of this

If Russia, China or Iran wanted to attack and damage our nation, they would love to do just 1/10th the damage this will do.

This is Insane.

That is, NOT Sane.

Nothing is logical about any of their plan, as explained in detail my many studies.

Just how do they think they will make it work?

By fiat? Newsom will speak: Let there be electricity.

(He might just get a strong personal jolt from the sky!)

“The problem is white suprememcy, or climate change, or ??”

We must just Try Harder!!!

Make the date sooner, raise the CAFE average, and repeat and increment up daily.

“be free of the fossil fuel emissions chiefly responsible for warming the planet”

They’re wrong, but from their point of view, ‘even if we’re wrong, we’re right.’ There is ZERO possibility that in the lifetime of anyone reading this, that ANY action that can be taken by our society today will make a detectable change in the atmosphere within the next 100 years or even 200 years.

And don’t get me started on the Chinese/India contribution.

Mine is zero emissions about 23 1/2 hours of most days.

Seems like that should count for something.

the only way they can meet these goals is to make ice cars too expensive to operate

forcing people into evs

if you cannot afford an ev get on the bus or bike

Wait till the EVs get stuck in a traffic jam on the freeway and then the battery runs down.

I might be retarded, but how do you mandate that 12% of cars sold in the state be electric, much less 35% or 68%? I get the idea of not selling ICE cars at all, but mandating a cap on sales doesn't make sense.

How do you know how many sales you'll make in a year before the year is over? I know there are projections and averages, but how do you say "for every 100 cars sold, 68 of them have to be electric."? A guy driving a pickup truck for work can't use a Tesla.

Do the car dealerships stop selling new cars at a certain point every month and say "sorry folks, gotta sell six more EVs before we can allow you to buy that F150." ?

Obviously there's a hole for used vehicles, and maybe there's a commerce clause loophole for vehicles brought into the state (but I doubt it), but this is just madness.

I'm sure nobody thought about apartment complexes or on street parking, or the fact that most of the Bay area is a constant open crime wave of vehicle break ins. How do you charge a car overnight on a city street like that. Absolute lunacy.

California was such a beautiful state once.
