White House takes action to force government workers to travel via electric vehicle, rail


'The Biden administration has issued a new directive to all government employees to travel by train or electric car, or electric Uber or Lyft, when traveling on official business. ...In an announcement, the Biden administration is directing all federal agencies to prioritize the use of sustainable transportation for official and local travel, both domestically and internationally. This includes using electric vehicles, either renting or options for taxis or ride-share services such as Lyft or Uber. However, there is one caveat: as long as you don’t rent an EV that is at a higher rate than the “most affordable comparable vehicle available.” (I suppose it’s a safety buffer against backlash on overspending taxpayer money as we enter an election year.)
