I don't understand why some people are against this bill. It seems like a no-brainer to allow electric vehicle charging stations at rest areas on the Interstate System. It would make it so much more convenient for electric vehicle owners to travel long distances without worrying about running out of battery. Plus, it would help promote the use of clean energy and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. Why wouldn't we want to support that? What do you think about the potential impact of this bill on the environment and our transportation infrastructure?
