The House Ways and Means Committee will vote on Tuesday on the proposal which is a part of a broad tax measure in a planned $3.5-trillion spending bill. The bill would make General Motors Co and Tesla Inc eligible again for EV tax credits after they previously hit a cap on the existing $7,500 incentive. It would also create a new smaller credit for used EVs.The bill would make most electric vehicles eligible for a $7,500 tax credit and then give automakers who assembled vehicles with union labour in the United States an additional $4,500 tax credit and $500 for vehicles meeting U.S.
The proposal to give union-made vehicles higher credit has already drawn criticism from foreign automakers like Honda Motor Co. Our Morning Update and Evening Update newsletters are written by Globe editors, giving you a concise summary of the day’s most important headlines.
