Autos Drive America Statement on House Ways and Means EV Tax Incentive Plan

September 13, 2021

WASHINGTON, D.C.Statement by Jennifer Safavian, President and CEO of Autos Drive America

“Today, more than half of all vehicles made in the U.S. are built by Americans who have chosen not to join a union, as is their right. All automakers are investing billions of dollars in offering American consumers a variety of electric vehicles (EVs). It is un-American for politicians to play favorites. Prioritizing among American auto workers creates an unlevel playing field that will limit consumer choice and punish non-unionized American workers, their families, and their communities.  If the Ways and Means Committee wants to support the administration’s climate change goals, they should support equal incentives for ALL EVs.”
