SACRAMENTO, Oct. 24 (UPI) -- The governors of eight U.S. states say they'll use their states' tax and budget powers in an effort to put 3.3 million zero-emissions cars on the road by 2025.
The governors of California, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, New York, Oregon, Rhode Island and Vermont said they were committed to providing more electric-car charging stations, buying zero-emission vehicles for state government fleets, offering tax breaks or other financial incentives to consumers and even discounting electric rates for home charging systems.
