WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, the American Fuel & Petrochemical Manufacturers (AFPM) is launching Driver’s Seat, a new issue ad highlighting Vice President Kamala Harris’ well-documented support for a California-style 100% ban on sales of new gas cars across the United States, policy that is even more extreme than the unpopular Biden-Harris EPA regulation aimed at phasing out most new gas cars by 2032.
The U.S. refining industry has a widespread economic impact on our nation. It supports millions of American jobs and pumps billions of dollars into the economy, as documented by the new AFPM report Economic Contributions of U.S. Petroleum Refineries. Report highlights, based on the latest full year of data available through IMPLAN (2022), are featured in this blog.
