Original Note:
The Biden State Dept solicited armored electric vehicles in April 2024 as part of a zero emission policy. Tesla was the only responder. Biden was still in office when the contract was modified Dec. 2024. The Trump administration recently put the potential purchase on hold. https://www.npr.org/2025/02/13/g-s1-48571/trump-administration-order-400-million-worth-of-armored-teslas https://www.dropsitenews.com/p/elon-musk-armored-tesla-forecast-400-million-state-department-contracts
