There is the question of how are government agencies pay for roads if and when the tax for fossil fuels stops giving enough revenue. That may end up making electricity more expensive. But there's also some sort of plan to charge vehicle owner's directly on a per mile basis. Either way, we're already paying for these taxes. It's just that we will be paying for them some other way.
On another note, I understand that fossil fuels are also subsidized in the USA. If the subsidies were slowly cut and if government agencies were to little by little work towards taxing fuel as much as they possibly could I bet there would be a natural transition over to EV's without any need of a date that all vehicles sold would need to be EV's. The extra taxes from fossil fuels would also be a way to make enough revenue to pay for more electric grid upgrades. And why couldn't those subsidies be redirected towards electricity too?
