Fund research for ultracapacitors for all eletric cars.
Battery technology will never catch up to the power production of fossil fuel vehicles. It takes too long to recharge and they will go bad before the car is no longer useful.
Ultracapacitors on the other hand have a longer lifetime and recharge much, much faster than batteries. Funding and research needs to be done to make a fully electric vehicle that will compete/replace gas and diesel vehicles, in an effort to drive down fuel costs for Americans.

Unfortunately they are also very heavy and decrease the efficiency and driving distance of cars when compared to electric cars. Though I do approve of the initial message of looking at technologies other than batteries.
