California Prepares EV Rebates as Trump Threatens Tax Credit
California Governor Gavin Newsom has pledged to reinstate the state's electric vehicle rebate program if President-elect Donald Trump eliminates the federal EV tax credit. Newsom aims to counteract potential federal policy changes by reviving the Clean Vehicle Program, which previously offered rebates for zero-emission vehicles. This move is part of California's broader strategy to maintain its commitment to clean transportation and air quality, despite potential federal rollbacks under Trump's administration.
