These EV charging stations not only provide a practical solution for EV drivers in need of additional charging options, but also sends a message that Ohio can be a leader in the EV space,&#8221; said Rep. Rogers.<\/p>\n<p>The funds that helped make Ohio the first state in the nation to develop charging stations is thanks to support of U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown&#8217;s efforts on the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. The addition of these new stations moves Ohio closer to its goal of locating fast chargers every 50 miles throughout the state.<\/p>\n<p>Electric vehicles will help us meet ambitious climate goals, while providing good-paying jobs and economic stimulus to the state.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>State Rep.
