That looks more like political posturing, nothing more. Consider that 99% of US vehicles are gasoline/diesel powered, there's no move to end the fracking revolution, US oil & gas production levels are not projected to decline over the next decade by any credible analysts, US export terminals for LNG are being expanded, and so on.
Even a relatively modest proposal like a 3% per year replacement of fossil fuel production with renewable production is not at all likely, I mean look at EIA projections [USA] through 2023:
> "The EIA believes that oil production will hit 11.9 million barrels a day (b/d) by the end of the year. Next year, the agency expects the 2019 record of 12.3 million b/d to be shattered, with production hitting an average of 12.7 million b/d."
