2024 Recent Vote
Representative Carol Miller (R-WV) sponsored H.R. 7980, the so-called End Chinese Dominance of Electric Vehicles in America Act of 2024, which would block the electric vehicle (EV) tax credits that were signed into law as part of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA). Transportation emissions contribute to climate change more than any other sector, and EVs are critical to reducing climate pollution and other, health-harming emissions. This bill would create widespread uncertainty in domestic vehicle manufacturing, scramble automakers’ plans to build and roll out EVs in the U.S., which would negatively impact autoworkers, car dealers, and potential EV owners. On September 12, the House approved H.R. 7980 by a vote of 217-192 (House roll call vote 417). NO IS THE PRO-ENVIRONMENT VOTE.
