Manchin Criticizes Biden's EV Tax Credit Plan
Senator argues plan neglects rural America, continues criticism of administration's environmental policy.
- Senator Joe Manchin criticizes President Biden's electric vehicle tax credit plan, stating it 'spits in the face of rural America'.
- The tax credit plan aims to lower electric vehicle costs for consumers by providing up to 30% of charger costs to people and businesses in low-income or urban areas.
- Manchin argues that the plan ignores rural and low-income areas where private businesses can't or won't invest in electric vehicle infrastructure.
- Manchin accuses the Biden administration of ignoring the law in pursuit of its climate agenda, stating that the tax credit plan is another attempt to force electric vehicles on Americans.
- Manchin's criticism of the Biden administration's environmental policy continues, with speculation of a potential third-party run for the presidency.
