Trump Administration Eyes Ending $7,500 EV Tax Credit Amid GOP's Shrinking Majority

Dec 2, 2024, 11:17 AM

The incoming Trump administration is considering eliminating the $7,500 electric vehicle (EV) tax credit, a move that would require Congressional approval. However, the Republican majority in the House of Representatives is expected to shrink to a razor-thin margin, potentially as small as one seat, creating significant challenges for advancing tax reforms. The EV industry is struggling to find Republican allies in Congress to preserve the tax credit, which could become a contentious issue in next year’s tax debates.
