Infrastructure Bill Passed: Finally!
After lengthy debates and much needless acrimony the bill passed with 13 Republicans (but not Liz Cheney) voting aye. When it is signed by Biden (and yes he will) the funds will go for distribution to Mayor Pete in Transportation. The portion directly involving EV is
Electric vehicles
The bill would provide $7.5 billion for zero- and low-emission buses and ferries, aiming to deliver thousands of electric school buses to districts across the country, according to the White House.
Another $7.5 billion would go to building a nationwide network of plug-in
electric vehicle chargers, according to the bill text.

While LEV may have an advantage of being (one of) the first to the market that will soon recede. Marketing and MESSAGING are key. Mayor Pete loves to talk about the "Yellow School Buses". There could be nothing better.
I'd like to see regular updates of progress at the Joliet plant preferably in video. Competition in the US will be tough and no doubt they will play the "foreign" card.
In Quebec, the competition brought up the "favoritism" card because of grants from the Province & the Feds. So far Marc has played that game well.
Exciting times ahead.
