Green Federal Fleet Act

HR 2704, the Green Federal Fleet Act, requires U.S. federal agencies to purchase or lease only zero-emission passenger vehicles (like electric cars) for new acquisitions, effective after the bill's enactment. It directly affects all federal agencies by mandating this shift in vehicle procurement, with limited exemptions if zero-emission vehicles are technically unfeasible for a specific need. The law defines "zero-emission vehicle" based on EPA standards, meaning vehicles producing no harmful emissions other than water vapor. Purchases or leases made before the bill's enactment are exempt from this requirement. This policy change specifically targets the federal government's vehicle fleet, not private or state entities.
