WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, the Treasury Department hosted a virtual roundtable with key stakeholders from across the automotive industry, including two dozen of the largest carmakers and vehicle battery makers, on implementation of the clean vehicle tax incentives in the Inflation Reduction Act. The roundtable was led by Treasury Assistant Secretary for Tax Policy Lily Batchelder and Treasury Climate Counselor John Morton.
