The meeting between Tesla CEO Elon Musk and senior members of US President Joe Biden's team demonstrated Biden's commitment to electric vehicles, as well as the importance he attaches to the infrastructure and inflation reduction laws passed last year, according to White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre. The meeting took place on Friday and included Tony Podesta, a top lobbyist for Tesla, and former New Orleans mayor Mitch Landrieu. During the meeting, the topics discussed included the recent tax incentives for electric vehicles as well as the recent changes to battery sourcing restrictions. Despite the tensions between Biden and Musk, the US government continues to support Tesla through tax subsidies and contracts with SpaceX, Musk's rocket company. The meeting highlights the continued support of the Biden administration for electric vehicles and the industry's growth.
