The Biden administration and regulators in California are \\u201ctrying to force the auto industry to convert its production of vehicles from gas-powered vehicles to electric vehicles,\\u201d warns Steve Bradbury, a distinguished fellow at The Heritage Foundation. (The Daily Signal is the news outlet of The Heritage Foundation.) 

\\u201cAnd they really have in mind a ramp rate to do that that gets to 100% electric, all-electric cars and trucks, SUVs, pickups, your crossovers. All those vehicles that American families need and love would have to be all-electric by sometime in the middle of the 2030s,\\u201d Bradbury says. 

\\u201cThey also have that plan for big, heavy-duty trucks. That\\u2019s on a longer time frame,\\u201d says Bradbury, adding: 

But they are beavering away, working as hard as they can to push this requirement through and actually force automakers to convert to electric vehicles much faster and much more broadly than market demand could possibly support.

Bradbury joins today\\u2019s episode of \\u201cThe Daily Signal Podcast\\u201d to discuss three cases before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit\\u2014State of Texas v. EPA; Natural Resources Defense Council v. NHTSA; and State of Ohio v. EPA\\u2014as well as some of the issues raised in the three cases, and whether the cases could wind up before the Supreme Court.
