Summary
This bill effectively eliminates the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program and the Charging and Fueling Infrastructure (CFI) Discretionary Grant Program.
Specifically, this bill requires states to use unobligated funds under these Department of Transportation (DOT) programs only for certain non-electric vehicle related projects.
As background, on January 20, 2025, President Trump issued Executive Order 14154, Unleashing American Energy, which directed federal agencies to immediately pause the disbursement of funds for electric vehicle charging stations made available through the NEVI and CFI programs.
Read the full summary
Under this bill, states may use any of the unobligated funds from these programs for projects that include
- the construction or rehabilitation of a federal highway,
- the replacement or rehabilitation of bridges,
- improvements that reduce the number of wildlife-vehicle collisions (e.g., wildlife crossing structures), or
- parking for commercial motor vehicles.
DOT must apportion any of its unobligated or future fiscal year funds from these programs to the states based on the current methodology for apportioning federal highway funds.
