  • New Vehicle Emission Standards: Matt Keenan on Consumer Choice and the Future of Automobiles
    Sep 12 2024

    In this episode of American Potential, host Jeff Crank speaks with Matt Keenan, Federal Affairs Liaison for Americans for Prosperity, about the upcoming changes to vehicle emission standards and how they will impact consumer choice. Set to go into effect in 2027, these new regulations, pushed by the Biden-Harris administration, could lead to a significant reduction in the availability of gas-powered vehicles, while promoting electric alternatives. Keenan explains how these changes will disproportionately affect rural Americans, small business owners, and those who depend on affordable transportation.

    Keenan also highlights how the increased costs and limited vehicle options could push consumers out of the market, making car ownership unattainable for many. With inflation already straining household budgets, these new standards could deepen economic challenges. Tune in to learn more about how government policies are reshaping the automotive industry and what it means for your freedom to choose the vehicle that best fits your needs.

Fascinating topics. Approachable conversations.

Real conversations with real folks. I appreciate the energetic and conversational approach to what often are opaque and sometimes dry topics.
