    Federal housing bill includes modest help for Mass., but buzzy investor limitation unlikely to have much impact here

    A new bipartisan federal housing bill includes provisions to limit institutional investors from buying large numbers of single-family homes but is unlikely to significantly impact Massachusetts, where such investments are not a major issue.

    Massachusetts has not deployed any electric vehicle (EV) chargers through the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program despite receiving $64 million in federal funding. Three vendors were selected, but only two (Applegreen and Global Partners) have signed contracts, while the third (Weston & Sampson) remains unresolved. Transit advocates and experts criticize the slow progress, with no chargers installed four years after federal approvals.
