Bill > A09191

This bill proposes to repeal Section 19-0306-b of the environmental conservation law, which originally mandated that 100% of new passenger car and truck sales within the state must be zero-emissions vehicles by the year 2035. By repealing this section, the bill effectively removes the requirement for all new passenger vehicles sold in the state to be zero-emissions, potentially allowing continued sales of traditional gasoline and diesel-powered vehicles beyond the previously established target date. The bill would take effect immediately upon passage, and its primary purpose appears to be eliminating the previously established zero-emissions vehicle sales mandate, which would have required significant shifts in automotive sales and transportation infrastructure to support electric and other zero-emissions vehicle technologies.
