It’s a move that could ease a major source of transatlantic friction and help President Joe Biden meet his promise to consumers to help make electric vehicles more affordable. POLITICO’s Zack Colman breaks down the details of the trade talks. Plus, FERC finds that a Southeast pipeline project would have a limited environmental impact, paving the way forward for a project tapped for expedited review.
