Reinstate the $7,500 EV Tax Credit to Keep EVs Affordable

The Issue

On October 1, 2025, the federal $7,500 electric vehicle tax credit expires — not because it stopped working, but because it was cut by the Trump administration’s latest budget bill.

Now, EV prices are rising, car sales are stalling, and millions of Americans are losing access to affordable clean transportation.

This tax credit helped make EVs more accessible to middle- and working-class families. It helped grow the U.S. EV market, create jobs, and reduce our dependence on fossil fuels. Its expiration threatens all of that progress — at the exact moment we should be accelerating the transition to cleaner vehicles.

We call on:

  • Congress to immediately pass legislation to reinstate the $7,500 federal EV tax credit
  • The White House and Department of Energy to publicly support restoring the credit as a way to maintain momentum in the EV market
  • Lawmakers to consider improving the program with point-of-sale discounts so buyers see the savings up front
     

This isn’t just a climate issue — it’s a pocketbook issue.

Millions of Americans want to drive electric vehicles for their savings, performance, and environmental benefits. But without this credit, EVs are harder to afford — especially for rural drivers, working families, and first-time buyers.

Letting this credit expire is a step backwards — for climate, for the economy, and for consumer choice.

Sign this petition to demand the U.S. government reinstate the $7,500 EV tax credit. Let’s keep EVs affordable, accessible, and moving forward.
