The governor deserves commendation for his decision to abandon the proposed Electric Vehicle mandate. This move is a wise and responsible choice that prioritizes the financial well-being of Connecticut residents and businesses, particularly in the face of ongoing inflation and the rising cost of living. Mandating the purchase of electric vehicles would have placed an unnecessary financial burden on families and businesses who are already struggling with high costs. Instead of pushing for costly regulations that restrict consumer choice, Governor Lamont’s decision helps ensure that residents can continue making purchasing decisions that work best for their own financial situations. In these challenging economic times, we need more policies focused on easing the financial pressure on Connecticut families, not adding to it. This is a step in the right direction.
