"Vehicle Choice Protection Act"; prohibits State agencies from adopting rules, regulations, or policies that restrict or prohibit sale, registration, or use of new internal combustion vehicles in State.

The Vehicle Choice Protection Act (S 1930) prohibits New Jersey state agencies from creating rules or policies that restrict the sale, registration, or use of new gasoline or diesel-powered vehicles. It directly affects state departments and commissions by blocking them from adopting regulations that would limit internal combustion engine vehicles. The bill’s key provision bans any rule, regulation, policy, or executive action with the purpose or effect of restricting these vehicles, applying to all state agencies. This bill takes effect immediately upon passage and does not change existing vehicle standards or promote specific vehicle types.
