SUMMARY: Governor Andy Beshear emphasizes Kentucky’s status as the leading state for electric vehicle (EV) battery production amid concerns about the incoming administration’s stance on EV policies. He warns that proposed cuts to federal EV incentives, such as tax credits, could jeopardize 10,000 jobs tied to the industry, many of which were supported by Trump voters seeking economic improvement. Political analyst Jonathan Miller notes that the electric vehicle market is culturally influenced and an inevitable growth area, regardless of government intervention. He highlights that demand for EVs may not currently align with concerns about market interventions and profitability.

Beshear, who has pitched Kentucky as the electric vehicle battery capital of the country, argued that cutting such policies could also risk some jobs in the state.
