Washington, D.C.--U.S. Senator Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) recently led and joined in co-sponsoring several pieces of legislation to repeal various Biden-Harris Administration’s policies under the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that implemented de facto electric vehicle (EV) mandates and restricted consumer choice and competition in the automotive market.
