At EV Charging Station, Hickenlooper Touts Colorado Wins in Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill

Press Release

Today, U.S. Senator John Hickenlooper visited an electric vehicle (EV) charging station to discuss how the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill he helped negotiate will benefit Coloradans across the state. President Biden will sign the bill into law on Monday.

The Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill is the largest public investment in infrastructure in a century and the largest climate change bill to date. Also included is Hickenlooper's RECHARGE Act, which makes it more affordable to drive an electric vehicle and will be Hickenlooper's first bill to become law since joining the Senate.

"This bill is huge for Colorado, for our country, and for our democracy,"said Hickenlooper, a member of the "Group of 22" senators who negotiated and wrote the $1.2 trillion bipartisan bill. "It means good paying jobs, clean air and water, high-speed internet for every Coloradan, and a big step toward our clean energy future."
