Senate-passed legislation meant to promote access to electric vehicles around the country will be under consideration before the U.S. House of Representatives this month.
A House companion bill sponsored by Rep. Ro Khanna aims to provoke government agencies to buy and utilize electric vehicles.
Under the Charging Helps Agencies Realize General Efficiencies (CHARGE) Act, the General Services Administration would issue agencies a charge card for officers or employees with access to electric motor vehicles that meet certain criteria. The distribution of these charge cards would be used to pay for electric vehicle recharging at commercially available stations.
