• The bill seeks to exclude EV batteries sourced from foreign entities of concern, like China, from U.S. tax credits.
• Seven Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the bill, which now awaits Senate consideration.
• Critics argue the bill could reduce the number of vehicles eligible for tax credits and impact emission targets.
• The Biden administration opposes the bill, claiming it would raise taxes, threaten jobs, and undermine efforts to combat climate change.
