Today, we have a: ✅fracking ban for 2024 ✅an official end date for oil extraction in CA ✅a draft public health & safety setback rule of 3200 ft. A year ago, we had none of this. We must now strengthen and expand the rule, but taking a moment to appreciate how far we've come.

#EV adoption is at a critical point. But strong targets are needed to speed up the transition to 100% pollution-free vehicles. @GavinNewsom, @AirResources, what will you say at #COP26 when we are being outdone across the globe? We've got to move faster. wri.org/insights/what-…

Tax credits, consumer rebates, and strong labor standards will ensure the transition to clean vehicles is a win for both workers AND our climate. @amprog founder @johnpodesta & @UAW president Ray Curry explain: #BuildBackBetter newsweek.com/green-cars-fut…

The strongest possible #cleanercars standards approved by @NHTSAgov would spur more innovation in American manufacturing, creating good, well-paying union jobs making auto parts and equipment for cars and trucks throughout the Midwest and South.

What if we could build a new world where economic growth and genuine prosperity are possible for all; without the exploitation of people and planet? 🌎 An #AgeOfFreedom. Real change can happen! The window of opportunity is now. It’s time to #RethinkHumanity. 👤 [Episode 1/8]

We testified on behalf of Latino communities during today's @epa #cleanercars hearing, as we fight for a better transportation future.

Our children, families, and communities deserve breathable air -- thanks @EPA for starting to reverse the Trump attack on #CleanerCars and implement the strongest possible vehicle pollution limits to protect growing lungs & public health. #CleanerCars ➡️ liveable future

We love to see the first day of the #CleanerCars @EPA hearing winding down with @ShannonBB_8 of @GreenForAll talking about protecting our most vulnerable communities 💯 "Every fraction of a degree matters." #ActOnClimate

“The rich aren’t concerned about clean air. They’ll be able to purchase it while the rest of us are left gasping.” The words of a testifier urging @epa to strengthen #CleanerCars standards. Oof. Yeah.

"We're looking for help & support & direction from leadership." Milton M., a 61-year-old immunocompromised African American resident of Maryland, urges @EPA to strengthen #CleanerCars standards. He says EPA needs to do all it can to protect people from pollution & #ActOnClimate.

Getting ready to tell @EPA why @cleanairmoms want #cleanercars at tomorrow's public hearing on the agency's proposed clean car standards.

Vehicle pollution disproportionately impacts low-wealth and BIPOC communities, leading to higher rates of asthma & other respiratory challenges. We need the strongest possible #CleanerCars standards from @EPA NOW, b/c #CleanerCars = Environmental Justice

Since @EPA is hearing from CEI representatives right now, a reminder to the general public that @ceidotorg is a climate denial group largely funded by ExxonMobil. Perhaps they aren't the best experts on regulating pollution? #CleanerCars 🤷🏻‍♀️👇🏼 desmog.com/competitive-en…

This morning, @PlugInAmerica Exec Dir Joel Levin testified at EPA #cleanercars hearing, urging for 100% EVs by 2035! Read Joel's full testimony: ow.ly/otsB50FY0s2 #DriveElectric

@cleanairmoms, @epa, and your lawmakers. Hashtags: #cleanercars, #actonclimate, #climatecrisis, #momsdrivechange. Sample: "Getting ready to tell @EPA why @cleanairmoms want #cleanercars at tomorrow's/today's public hearing on the agency's proposed clean car standards."

The disruptive transformation of energy, transportation, and food systems can slash 90% of carbon emissions by 2035 and hit net zero by 2040, if we make the right societal choices Find out how in our latest report: rethinkx.com/climate-implic… #90by2035

.@ElectrifyAm and @ValleyCAN are helping rural communities in the California Central Valley go electric. We need partnerships like this one to get us to a 100% pollution free fleet. ⚡🚗 govtech.com/fs/evs-growing…

#CalLeg - We cannot let critical clean car programs that benefit low-income communities RUN OUT OF $ in future years. We must commit to #InvestInCleanAir every year to fight pollution and the climate crisis - bit.ly/policy-support…

"This is a once-in-a-generation chance for big investments in transit funding. Failing to go big enough is not an option." New op-ed by @katherinejulia on the need for Congress to go BIGGER on #transit funding to meet communities' needs & #ActOnClimate. thehill.com/opinion/energy…

Electrifying CA’s trucks will eliminate the toxic pollution from dirty diesel trucks. Tell @AirResources we need to do more to ensure every Californian has clean air to breathe. #ElectricTrucksNow act.sierraclub.org/actions/Califo…
