and nitrogen oxides (NOx) from the numerous commercial and government fleets of MHD vehicles in the state. The ACF is an opportunity to deliver meaningful reductions in air pollution for the most affected communities, but the current proposal falls short of what is technologically and economically feasible.

Now that California has taken the lead and set a goal for all passenger vehicles sold in the state to be electric by 2035, the next logical step is electrifying medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. This is an integral step towards cleaning our air and reducing climate-warming emissions. There are more than 1.8 pollution from vehicles.
