WASHINGTON—Today, President Joe Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 into law. In response, Electrification Coalition Executive Director Ben Prochazka issued the following statement:
“To reduce the stranglehold that oil has on the US transportation system, we must rapidly electrify our transportation sector. The measures included in the Inflation Reduction Act will ultimately act to accelerate the transition and set the United States up for long-term success over the next decade. We thank the Senate for negotiating this deal and the president for signing it. We look forward to working with stakeholders to implement this important law.”
