Skyrocketing gas prices, which have surged more than 60 cents per gallon since the start of the war with Iran, have ironically created a direct opening to reframe clean cars and EVs, as well as federal policy investments in them, as an economic and energy security imperative, not just a climate or environmental solution. Provides talking points, LTE, and social media guidance to hold the administration, and especially EPA and NHTSA, accountable for boxing us into this inescapable price volatility, while pivoting to the solution (i.e., that clean vehicles and especially those that run on stable, American-made electricity, structurally insulate drivers from global oil market chaos).
