</span></span></strong></span><span style="font-size:15px;">Kentucky and Kansas recently took significant steps to ensure automotive freedom and innovation for their states. Kentucky's Governor Andy Beshear allowed a bill to pass that blocks the adoption of California's stricter vehicle emissions standards, safeguarding consumer choice. Meanwhile, Kansas Governor Laura Kelly signed a bill that prevents state agencies and local governments from restricting vehicle sales based on their fuel technology. Both moves are celebrated by SEMA as victories for our industry.
<br><br>
</span><span style="font-size:15px;">Louisiana is the latest to champion this effort. Having passed both chambers of the legislature with overwhelming support, Governor Jeff Landry has now signed into law its own version of this legislation. Several other states have <a rel="noopener" name="SoughtSimilarProposals" title="ICE Bans & EPA Regulations" href="https://info.sema.org/rd/9z4zsrnbvprku4279fmo2tne22tb8kqbcb77m6476e8_rp22sh2s8i6ep37c9im0ob0c5h2bs" style="text-decoration: underline; color: #666666;" target="_blank">sought similar proposals</a> to promote consumer choice, foster innovation, and protect jobs. SEMA believes that individuals, not the government, should decide what vehicles are best for them and their families.
