Rep. Chu Statement on Treasury’s Electric Vehicle Tax Credit Guidance

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Rep. Judy Chu (CA-28) issued the following statement in response to the new U.S. Department of Treasury guidance on implementation of the electric vehicle tax credit that became law as part of the Inflation Reduction Act:

"The Inflation Reduction Act was an historic investment in both our clean energy transition and our domestic manufacturing capacity. To succeed, the Treasury Department's guidance must fulfill Congress's intent by ensuring that the EV tax credit invests in American jobs while requiring enforceable environmental and labor protections from our trading partners. As a member of the Ways and Means Committee, which has jurisdiction over international trade, I look forward to working with the Treasury to meet these goals."
