It seems the private sector is expanding charging station without government help.

I am continuously reading more & more stories like below.

Airports are quickly turning into some of the busiest places to charge an EV, and bp pulse is leaning into that trend by officially opening a new DC fast‑charging hub today near Chicago’s O’Hare International Airport. Similar bp pulse hubs are already operating near airports in Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco, Fort Lauderdale, and Houston.

A few months ago Tesla built a 30 bay supercharger station here in Las Cruces NM next to an I-10 interstate exit.

The City of Las Cruces, El Paso Electric and Forth Mobility has instituted an EV car sharing program here.

I still drive an ICE vehicles. I drive cheap very used cars of manufacturers of renowned reliability. A few years ago I drove to the East coast of the USA. I sprung for a rental. My days of flying in cattle car aircraft are long gone. I suppose I could have flown business class and rented a car locally for the same price. But I enjoyed the drive and seeing the country. YMMV
