Grants for Electric Vehicle Sharing Services in Public Housing Communities.

This Act establishes a competitive federal grant program to launch electric vehicle (EV) sharing services within public housing projects. The goal is to provide affordable transportation options and improve air quality for residents, particularly in historically marginalized communities. Grant funds cover vehicle purchases, charger installation, and incentives like subsidized fares for residents, ensuring charging fees are fair and affordable.
Key points
Public housing residents gain access to affordable EV car-sharing services, potentially including subsidized usage fees.
Charging fees must be fair, equitable, and cannot exceed the average market rate, protecting users from excessive costs.
Infrastructure projects must adhere to prevailing wage standards and prioritize hiring local workers from disadvantaged groups for charger installation.
