EV Mandates Will Hurt Michigan’s Economy, But Slotkin Doesn’t Care

Detroit, Michigan – As Elissa Slotkin and Mike Rogers debate the impacts of the Biden-Harris Administration’s EV mandate, it’s important to remember that Slotkin has supported the administration’s ban on gas-powered cars.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Tim Golding released the following statement:

Just last month, Elissa Slotkin voted against a bill—introduced by Michigan Congressman John James—to roll back the Biden-Harris Administration’s electric vehicle mandate. This EV mandate spells disaster for Detroit, but Slotkin supports it anyway.

“Mike Rogers knows that it’s better to let industry innovate without interference from the government and he won’t back heavy-handed mandates that deprive consumers of choice, push businesses to the breaking point, or endanger Michigan jobs.”

Slotkin Voted for Crushing Inflation

Detroit, Michigan – As the economy remains a top concern for Michigan voters, Congresswoman Elissa Slotkin refuses to acknowledge that she voted for the inflation that’s crushing families and seniors living on fixed incomes.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Tim Golding issued the following statement as Slotkin and Rogers sparred over the cost-of-living crisis:

“Congresswoman Slotkin talks a good game, but her voting record shows her true loyalty is to the Democratic Party elites, even when its radical progressive agenda threatens the financial stability of Michiganders.

“Slotkin voted for inflation when she voted for the so-called “Inflation Reduction Act” which was actually reckless government spending. She also voted for the “American Rescue Plan.” Both bills mushroomed the national debt. Studies show that far from reducing inflation, these planks of the Biden-Harris agenda overheated the economy and triggered this historic cost-of-living crisis.

“Mike Rogers will restore fiscal sanity and defend hard-working taxpayers by opposing wasteful government spending.”
