The Trump administration has abruptly suspended a $5 billion electric vehicle charging station initiative established during the Biden era, signaling a regression in U.S. environmental policy. A memo from the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) mandates states halt spending from the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program while a review of its underlying policies takes place. The decision rescinds all prior guidance, halting new approvals for State Electric Vehicle Infrastructure Deployment plans until updated guidance is issued. Existing obligations for designing and building charging stations will be reimbursed to maintain current financial commitments, highlighting the government's shifting priorities in energy infrastructure.
