New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo joined 11 other governors from across the country, asking President Joe Biden to set the U.S. on a path to a zero-emission transportation future.
In a letter sent Wednesday, the governors asked the federal government to set standards that would require all new passenger cars and light-duty trucks are zero-emissions by 2035 and that all medium-duty and heavy-duty vehicles are zero-emissions by 2045. The governors also asked for new electric vehicle tax credits, enhancements to existing electric vehicle tax credits, funding for state investments in charging and fueling infrastructure, and other reforms.
