Should the federal government support EV adoption through incentives and infrastructure funding?

Electric vehicles (EVs) run on electricity instead of gasoline or diesel, which can reduce carbon emissions and dependence on fossil fuels. To increase EV adoption, the government could provide financial incentives (e.g., tax credits) and invest in infrastructure such as charging stations. Proponents argue that government support helps lower the upfront cost of EVs, makes electric transportation more accessible, and addresses climate change by reducing emissions. Investments in charging infrastructure ensure that EV owners have the resources they need to drive without concern. Opponents arg…

Yes but with less focus on electric vehicles and more focus on improving affordable public transportation resources.

 @BF3BKJL  from Florida  answered…1wk1W

Yes but not interfere with wildlife

 @BF3CNP4 from Arizona  answered…1wk1W

Everything should be eco friendly and affordable so yes probably

 @BF39WNZ from Minnesota  answered…1wk1W

No, but the federal government should refrain from enacting policies that make EV adoption harder.

 @BDZTDDD from Missouri  answered…2wks2W

No, EV businesses should be subject to marketplace stressors without government assistance. If the business model isn't profitable, businesses should abandon it. Seen this before with government assistance on solar panels (Solyndra) that simply became pass-through funding for political cronies. Enough already.

 @BDZN8FY  from Ohio  answered…2wks2W

Yes and provide financial incentives for people who switch from gasoline to hybrid or EV

 @BDZF6YJ from New York  answered…2wks2W

Develop public transit.

 @9C7KZRK  from Ohio  answered…2wks2W

Yes, but only support EV adoption for public transportation.

Elizabeth Warren Walks Back Murder Comments

Congressional Democrats broadly denounced the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson Friday morning, after Republicans started accusing Sen. Elizabeth Warren of excusing violence.“No one's condoning this,” said Rep. Brad Schneider (D-Ill.). “Violence never is the right answer for anything. And it was a horrible murder, a tragic loss for his family.” Warren this week condemned the shooting, but added that people “can be pushed only so far.”"We'll say it over and over," Warren said on MSNBC’S “The ReidOut.” " Violence is never the answer. This guy [Luigi Mangione] gets a trial who's allegedly killed the CEO of UnitedHealth, but you can only push people so far, and then they start to take matters into their own hands."In a statement to POLITICO, Warren said, “Violence is never the answer. Period. I should have been much clearer that there is never a justification for murder.” Top Republicans denounced Warren's comments and the walked-back rhetoric, with House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) calling it “inappropriate and dangerous.”Some House Democrats asked about the incident on Thursday pivoted the conversation to discuss policy options on health care or gun safety.“I don't really know that this is really a space that Congress normally weighs in on,” said Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas). “But at the end of the day, I think it’s an opportunity, because now people are talking about health care and to talk about the fact that this industry has honestly not been as helpful as it could be.”“Violence is never the answer,” said Rep. Troy Carter (D-La.). “We know that there are people suffering, there’s great challenges in healthcare. There's great challenges, and people have, in fact, been wronged, but a process of governance is the way to address that, not violence.”And Rep. Ted Lieu (D-Calif.) who denounced the murder, said the killer should be prosecuted and that “I do know that allegedly a ghost gun was used, and we should also ban ghost guns. There's no reason for them beyond the streets.”
