US Halts $5 Billion Electric Vehicle Charging Station Program

The US Department of Transportation has ordered states to halt their plans for the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program, a $5 billion initiative to fund the construction of electric vehicle charging stations. This decision, which may be illegal, could impact charging stations already under construction and harm businesses that have invested in the program. Tesla has also received $31 million in awards from the program. The move appears to contradict court orders and the Administrative Procedures Act.
