Description:

Elon Musk’s public squabble with President Donald Trump comes as Republicans debate their mega reconciliation bill, which would almost certainly hurt Tesla’s lesser-known solar and battery division. POLITICO’s Matt Daily breaks down how that Tesla division could get caught in Republicans’ crosshairs. Plus, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued a rule stating it will not consider electric vehicles when writing fuel economy regulations.
