WASHINGTON, (Nov. 8, 2023) — The U.S. Senate voted 50-48 to overturn President Joe Biden's decision to waive some Buy America requirements for government-funded electric vehicle (EV) charging stations, but the White House said he would veto the measure.

The White House argued the Republican bill would eliminate entirely the domestic manufacturing requirement for government-funded EV chargers "thereby harming domestic manufacturing and American jobs."
