Summary

The bill orders the Access Board to finish a 2024 draft rule that sets accessibility standards for electric‑vehicle charging stations. If the board does not meet the 18‑month deadline, the draft automatically becomes a final rule, and the Transportation Secretary and Attorney General must issue regulations to enforce it. The goal is to make EV charging usable for people with disabilities.
