Congress provided $7.5B for electric vehicle chargers. Biden built ZERO.

Congress provided this money 2 years ago. Biden's program still hasn't built a single charger.


Congress at the urging of the Biden administration agreed in 2021 to spend $7.5 billion to build tens of thousands of electric vehicle chargers across the country, aiming to appease anxious drivers while tackling climate change.

Two years later, the program has yet to install a single charger.

States and the charger industry blame the delays mostly on the labyrinth of new contracting and performance requirements they have to navigate to receive federal funds. While federal officials have authorized more than $2 billion of the funds to be sent to states, fewer than half of states have even started to take bids from contractors to build the chargers — let alone begin construction.

Consumer demand for electric vehicles is rising in the United States, necessitating six times as many chargers on its roads by the end of the decade, according to federal estimates. But not a single charger funded by the bipartisan infrastructure law has come online and odds are they will not be able to start powering Americans’ vehicles until at least 2024.

Getting chargers up and running across the country is essential to reaching President Joe Biden’s goal of having half the vehicles sold in the United States be electric by the end of the decade — a key cog of his climate agenda. Americans consistently say the lack of charging infrastructure is one of the top reasons they won’t buy an electric car.

Republican opponents are now trying to shut down the administration’s efforts to build a charging network by choking off its funding. And the sluggish rollout could undermine Biden’s EV-themed reelection messaging and increase the possibility a Republican in the White House could roll back the charging network efforts in 2025.

“It has been frustrating to say the least,” Arcady Sosinov, founder and CEO of charging manufacturer FreeWire Technologies, said of the slow pace of the rollout.

"yes, we used the money to renovate our mansions, and buy new cars. your taxes are going up btw"

at this point the jews and their puppet biden could just get on prime time tv and make this statement to all Americans and guess what, no ones gonna do jack ****. especially now since there are more retards here than ever. The only resistance will be some people posting memes on twitter.

They can do whatever they want. these are the people that did 911 and pointed us to Iraq because Israel needed it gone. wheres the pushback on that? Hell most Americans cant even find Iraq on a map, the other half think we blew up iraq for some oil even though China got literally every oil contract. The only thing America got from that war is alot of dead Americans.

theres the blackpill - You can enslave people as long as you let him have their new toyota and ****tly built house on a 1/8th of an acre, theyll slave away until they disappear.

Shows you:

1) How important EV's are to "saving the Earth."

And

2) How "devastatingly real" the "climate crisis" really is.

Or maybe it just shows you that politicians are working for their donors.

Amazing how that's your takeaway from this.

But you're definitely not a lib though, are you.

Circular reasoning.
Are you going to prove the existence of God next?
