GOP Senate hopefuls on Tuesday ridiculed clean energy policies as they took turns speaking during the second night of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee.
Rep. Mike Rogers, who is running to replace retiring Michigan Democratic Sen. Debbie Stabenow, accused the Biden administration of “trying to force you to buy an electric vehicle.”

Biden’s EV agenda, Rogers said, would “destroy American jobs” by increasing the country’s reliance on imports for minerals and other components.
