"Understanding Wisconsin's Proposed Electric Vehicle Charger Tax"

The Wisconsin Senate passed a bill to expand electric vehicle charging stations and impose a 3-cent tax per kilowatt hour of electricity sold to vehicle owners, generating an estimated $3.1 million in revenue for infrastructure projects. The bill aims to accommodate the increasing number of electric vehicles in the state, but some lawmakers and supporters are concerned about burdening electric vehicle drivers with additional costs. The bill will now move to the state Assembly for a vote, and it remains uncertain whether Governor Tony Evers will sign it into law.
