CHARGE Act

This bill would change federal motor vehicle law to bar any person from selling, offering for sale, shipping across state lines, or importing an electric vehicle or electric vehicle equipment made in whole or in part by a "foreign entity of concern." It would also bar these activities for any vehicle or equipment that uses a charging power control part made in whole or in part by such an entity. The bill defines a "vehicle charge power control component" as onboard systems that manage energy flow between a vehicle's charging port and its battery, such as onboard chargers and battery-management controls. It uses existing federal definitions for "electric vehicle" and "foreign entity of concern," and keeps existing legal exceptions to the prohibition.
