I am committed to accelerating the transition to electric vehicles (EVs) as a cornerstone of our environmental and energy strategy. Recognizing the critical role of infrastructure in scaling up the EV market, I support a bold federal initiative to rapidly expand the U.S. EV charging infrastructure. This policy position is not just about bolstering the convenience of owning an EV; it’s about laying the groundwork for a sustainable transportation future.
To achieve this, I advocate for significant federal investment in a nationwide network of EV charging stations, aiming to eliminate range anxiety and make EV ownership accessible and practical for all Americans, regardless of where they live or travel. This includes urban centers, rural areas, and everything in between, ensuring that EV charging stations are as common and convenient as traditional gas stations.
