Fleet Vehicle Purchases - North American made PHEV or BEV only

Created by D.W. on April 27, 2013

The administration should issue an executive order requiring all federal agencies to replace all passenger fleet vehicles with Plug in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) or Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV) with in the next five years. All PHEV and BEV vehicles purchased shall be assembled in North America with at least 51% North American made parts. All federal facilities and rest stops on Interstate Highways shall have charging stations for federal fleet vehicles and federal charging stations shall employ solar PV canopies where practical.

This policy insures that federal vehicle use will not worsen our national dependence on imported oil, reduce pollution and reduces fuel costs for federal operations.
