Minnesota is in line to receive billions of dollars in infrastructure money from the federal bill soon to be signed by President Biden, and some of that money could go toward expanding electric vehicle infrastructure in the state.

Minnesota Now listeners heard about the latest on Minnesota’s share of the money. Then, host Cathy Wurzer turned to Jon Hunter, senior director of clean air for the American Lung Association in Minnesota, to find out more about money for electric vehicle infrastructure. Overall, the bill includes about $7.5 billion for electric vehicle infrastructure. That’s less than the $15 billion the president originally sought.
