    by Gregg Small on

    🚨 Breaking: Oregon Delays Clean Air Progress—Tell Legislators to Act Now

    by Brett Morgan on

    JUST IN: As of yesterday, the Oregon leaders decided on a major setback to clean air and climate progress. They announced a two-year delay to the state’s Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) rule.

    Oregon backslides on clean air, public health protections amid big oil and truck lobbying and federal rollbacks

    by Climate Solutions on

    Salem, OR – In a major setback to clean air and climate progress, Oregon leaders today announced a two-year delay to the state’s Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT) rule—bowing to pressure from fossil fuel interests and truck manufacturers as part of a nationally orchestrated multi-state campaign to derail the transition to cleaner electric vehicles. This delay strips the ACT rule of its regulatory teeth for two more years, rewards industry laggards, and directly undermines Oregon’s climate commitments, public health protections, and economic leadership.
