## Summary

**This bill would redirect unobligated federal EV infrastructure money so it can only fund traditional highway and related projects.** It focuses on unused National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) Formula Program and Charging and Fueling Infrastructure grant funds and sets strict rules for how those dollars may be spent and distributed to States. - States would receive any NEVI unobligated funds and certain set-asides on October 1 of each fiscal year and must use them for highway construction, bridge work, wildlife-crossing improvements, commercial motor vehicle parking, or engineering and design tied to those projects. - NEVI set-asides that were meant for the Joint Office or extra assistance to deploy EV charging would instead be distributed to States by formula based on each State's share of highway apportionments. - The bill treats NEVI unobligated amounts as not subject to obligation limits and as additional to regular apportionments, while unobligated Charging and Fueling grant funds are made available under the program's usual obligation rules but remain additional and keep their original availability period.
