Hello hopeful Elio Owners,
I saw this news from The Washington Post regarding the administration's 2018 Budget Proposal which was released today. I understand that this subject may cause political comments from either side, but please leave them out. This was pulled out of the entire list of the proposed cuts/increases to the federal budget, which you can find the details of the proposal at this source:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/politics/trump-presidential-budget-2018-proposal/#defunded
Energy Sector:
"The Trump budget proposal, which cuts the Energy Department's budget by 6 percent, would boost spending on managing the nation’s nuclear stockpile and revive the controversial Yucca Mountain storage facility for nuclear power plant waste. It would slash spending on a host of science and climate areas.
-Eliminates the Energy Star, Weatherization Assistance Program, ARPA-E, Advanced Technology Vehicle Manufacturing Program, and Title 17 loan guarantees..."
I understand that this is the 2018 proposal, which wouldn't go into effect for some time (and still has to be approved), but it may be an indicator for what direction the ATVM loan program is headed for.
