Green Federal Fleet: Ban on Government Agencies Purchasing Non-Zero-Emission Vehicles
This new act prohibits U.S. federal agencies from purchasing or leasing new vehicles that are not zero-emission vehicles. This means the government will gradually transition to a fleet of electric or other non-polluting vehicles, potentially improving air quality and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Exceptions are only allowed if using a zero-emission vehicle is technically unfeasible.
Key points
Federal agencies will be prohibited from buying or leasing new non-zero-emission vehicles, unless a zero-emission vehicle is technically impossible to use.
The goal is to transition the government's fleet to zero-emission vehicles, supporting environmental objectives and transportation innovation.
The changes only apply to future purchases and leases, not to agreements made before the act's enactment.
