Earlier this month, President Biden affirmed that “the future of the auto industry is electric. There’s no turning back.” As our country starts to open up, more people are getting back on the road. Electric vehicles are not only a climate solution, but an essential component in reviving our economy and creating good-paying jobs where we need them the most. But how do we do it in a way that is equitable and long-lasting?

Please join Third Way for a digital event on June 16 at 11 AM EDT as we discuss the growing demand for EVs, its workforce, and the enormous economic opportunities.
