With incomplete information and analysis by staff, the California Air Resources Board decided to advance a half-baked proposal to give additional subsidies to the very same oil companies that are gouging Californians at the pump and making windfall profits due to the war in Iran.

We expect our air regulators to protect communities — not the industries who are polluting our air and accelerating climate change.

Public comment on the proposed changes to Cap-and-Invest started around 10am today and wrapped up around 6pm.

There was an incredible turn out from EJ advocates from across the state, as well as folks from AB 617 Community Steering Committees, environmental , transit, and housing orgs all aligned on rejecting these changes and eliminating the Manufacturing Decarbonization Incentive.

CARB will deliberate and vote tomorrow morning; we will follow up!

California’s “Cap-and-Invest” Plan = Billions for Big Oil, Cuts for Communities.

Today we joined our transit and environmental justice allies in San Francisco to tell Gov Newsom and CA air regulators: Don’t Rob Transit and Housing to Fund Giveaways to Big Oil ‼️

Tomorrow the CA Air Resources Board is planning on taking billions of dollars AWAY from public transit and affordable housing programs to give big polluters like Chevron permission to cook our planet.

👋🏾On May 28, Governor Newsom’s top air regulators are poised to hand big oil a massive giveaway, giving the oil and gas industry more allowances than the pollution they emit. This action would divert billions from the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund and the California Climate Credit, handing big oil a massive giveaway and eliminating $4 billion in funding for clean air, transit and housing. Californians deserve better.

Do you believe that everyone deserves to live in stable, affordable, and healthy housing? You know that CBE DOES! CBE is part of the CA Green New Deal Coalition where we're fighting for green social housing to address the affordable housing crisis, create healthy homes, and take land and housing out of the hands of for-profit corporations and into the hands of communities! 
 
Join our Statewide Green Social Housing Workshop on Wednesday, May 27th, 5:30-7:30pm to learn about green social housing.
