Original Note:
Officials say the $42 billion high-speed internet allotment was designed to be part of a longer-term program, so minimal spending at this point was expected. The charging station stat is outdated, as the federal funds have now funded 20 stations, not seven. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2024/10/18/internet-access-ev-charging-funds-fact-check/75686407007/ https://www.benton.org/headlines/would-trump-upend-biden%E2%80%99s-42-billion-broadband-push
