LANSING, Mich. — The White House reportedly plans to relax the emission rules that were designed to boost electric vehicle use.

The regulation would have forced car companies to make E-Vs their main business by the year 2032. The Biden Administration is now delaying that rule.

The move will give car-makers more time to bring down E-V costs.

It'll also give labor leaders more time to extend union memberships to those working at E-V plants.
