Mandate & Rebate property owners install 220V outlets for EVs in rental parking spots ASAP.

EVs are going to be cheaper than combustion vehicles in a year. Supercharger lines are going to flood the streets.

Good morning with good news: "In 2024, the global average battery pack price fell more than 25% compared with 2023."

Falling EV costs produced lower EV prices in many countries, especially for BEVs.

China's EVs often are cheaper than ICE cars!

This has always been the GOP's strategy:

1) Cut taxes for the wealthy & corporations by claiming they'll pay for themselves.

2) Explode deficits

3) Use the debt as an excuse to demand cuts to vital programs that help millions.

4) Repeat.
