Senators Raise Questions about EV Mandates and Subsidies Going to China

The Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources has been scrutinizing the intersection of electric vehicle mandates and supply chains to meet them, and how EV subsidies could empower China, which controls a lot of those supply chains. 

Sen. Joe Manchin (pictured above), D-W.Va., chair of the committee, said he doesn’t have any problem with electric vehicles. 

”My problem is with an administration whose crusade is to convert everyone over to an EV regardless of where the battery came from,” Manchin said.
