WASHINGTON (Reuters) – The White House said on Thursday it did not view electric vehicle tax credits contained in President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better” as a violation of a trade agreement between the United States and Canada.
“We don’t view it that way,” White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki said. She said the tax credits were an opportunity to help consumers in the United States that would help create jobs and protect the climate.
