FL S1332

Urges Congress to authorize installation of electric vehicle charging stations at rest areas along the interstate highway system.

Requests Congress allow charging station providers to charge fees for public use of stations installed in rest areas.

Cites that transportation accounts for 30 percent of U.S. energy needs and 70 percent of petroleum consumption, with electric vehicles offering greater fuel economy and lower emissions.

Notes that Florida's 8,000 miles of low-elevation coastline and 75 percent coastal population make the state particularly vulnerable to sea-level rise, which electric vehicle adoption could help mitigate.

Directs the Secretary of State to send copies of the memorial to the President, Congressional leadership, and Florida's congressional delegation.
