With the ongoing controversy over the charging station bill in the United States, attitudes and actions from various states are gradually becoming more diverse.

In some states with developed traditional manufacturing industries, such as Michigan, the local government has expressed support for the Biden administration’s charging pile construction policy and gradual localization strategy. “We are confident that in the next few years, we will cooperate with federal policies to enhance the manufacturing capacity and technological level of the charging pile related industry in our state, which is an opportunity for our state’s economic development and employment,” the governor of Michigan said at a state government meeting.

However, in some western states, some state government officials have expressed concerns. Our state’s foundation in this area is already very weak. If we strictly follow the law all at once, we are concerned that a large amount of construction funds may not be effectively utilized and the project may come to a standstill, “a Nevada official said in an interview.

At the same time, some states have begun to experiment with innovative cooperation models, such as Texas, which is exploring the possibility of establishing joint ventures with international companies to produce charging pile components in the United States.

Reporters interviewed the public on the streets, and their opinions varied. Some people who own electric vehicles expressed their hope for the popularization and improvement of charging stations as soon as possible. “I don’t want to have to go to faraway places every time to charge, I hope the bill can truly promote construction.” However, some people also believe that the implementation of the bill should be treated more cautiously from the perspective of national trade and other factors.
