Trump Administration Orders States To Halt Spending On Federally Funded EV Chargers

The Trump administration has ordered states to halt spending on electric vehicle charging infrastructure funded under the Biden administration’s National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure program. The directive follows Trump’s pause on billions in EV charger funding on his first day in office. The administration may require congressional approval to halt EV charger funding, but its passage is uncertain. Industry leaders believe customer demand will sustain charging network expansion despite federal funding cuts.
