Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
2 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 0 mixed.
Move unused charging grants to roads
States would receive any unobligated Charging and Fueling Infrastructure grant funds, and future‑year amounts each October 1. Each State would get a share based on its usual highway apportionment under 23 U.S.C. 104(c) or 165. Money could be used only to build, fix, or preserve Federal‑aid highways; eligible bridge projects; wildlife‑vehicle collision reductions; commercial truck parking; and related engineering and design. It could not be used for charging or fueling grant purposes. These dollars would be treated like regular highway apportionments, would be subject to normal federal obligation limits, and would stay available for the same time as under the original program.
Shift unused EV formula funds to roads
States would receive any unobligated NEVI Formula Program funds, including past set‑asides, and future‑year amounts each October 1. Each State would get a share based on its usual highway apportionment under 23 U.S.C. 104(c) or 165. Money could be used only to build, fix, or preserve Federal‑aid highways; eligible bridge projects; wildlife‑vehicle collision reductions; commercial truck parking; and related engineering and design. It could not be used for EV charging purposes. These dollars would be treated like regular highway apportionments, would not face federal obligation limits, and would stay available for the same time as under the original program.
