An anonymous reader quotes a report from The Guardian:On Thursday, the House approved legislation to undo a Biden administration rule meant to facilitate the proliferation of EV charging stations. 38 from Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.), would scrap a Federal Highway Administration waiver from domestic sourcing requirements for EV chargers funded by the 2021 bipartisan infrastructure law. "A waiver undercuts domestic investments and risks empowering foreign nations," said Rep. Sam Graves (R-Mo. ), chair of the Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, during House debate Thursday. The White House promised to veto it and said it would backfire, saying it was so poorly worded it would actually result in fewer new American-made charging stations.
