Voted today to approve @AirResources $2.6 billion in Transportation Funding focused on zero emissions and equity. Benefits to low income communities hit first and worst by climate & toxic pollution will benefit! Thank you @AirResources staff & board for your great work!

A massive strike authorization vote is taking place for 48,000 academic workers within the University of California.
The sheer scale of this vote’s impact is immense - around 10% of all postdoc workers in the USA are in the UC system.

Farewell dirty diesel trucks – your days are numbered! @CARB took a huge step towards 100% ZEV trucks yesterday. A village - CARB staff & board; a remarkably united EJ+labor+enviro coalition working to bring health & climate relief to most impacted communities. We can do this!
Such an important and powerful voice. Thank you @SenGonzalez_33 for your leadership along with @SenMariaEDurazo and our 30 legislative allies. Much important work lies ahead @AirResources to ensure a comprehensive and equitable final #ACF and heavy duty transition

🚨@AirResources hearing on ACF just wrapped. Here's what I heard:
Majority (7, or 8 w/ @ConnieMLeyva) support moving sales requirement from 2040 to 2036, including Chair @mslianeran!
4 (5 w/ Leyva) support lowering fleet threshold to 10, but majority agree to study going lower!

⚡️Sarah Flocks, CA Labor Fed. "The Board needs to reduce the high priority fleet size from 50 down to 10. Misclassification of drivers in the industry are rampant, they don't get minimum wage, or OT." Support a strong #ACF rule that protects workers! .@mslianeran .@AirResources

⚡️‼️@SenMariaEDurazo "We need to regulate fleet sizes of 10 or more trucks to ensure labor protections are applied to vulnerable drivers again, companies not drivers should be held responsible for compliance and shared" #ACF #ElectricFleetsNow #CleanAir
“A commitment to climate equity means a commitment to workers”
“We need to regulate fleet sizes of 10 or more trucks… to ensure equity for working Californians” #ACF
Thank you for your leadership @SenMariaEDurazo!!!!!
