Right now, Oregon legislators are drafting a sweeping transportation funding package. Transportation is our state’s largest source of climate pollution. Yet the current transportation framework does not include any investment in clean vehicles or charging infrastructure.
We need you to act NOW -- email lawmakers today urging them to prioritize climate investments to the transportation package!
Without course correction, the transportation package will deliver: No funding for electric school buses. No zero-emission freight. No plan to reduce pollution through transportation. This is a missed opportunity to improve air quality, protect kids’ health, and fight climate change. While other states move forward, Oregon risks becoming a diesel dumping ground.
Unless key gaps are addressed, the result will be a transportation package that fails to meaningfully address climate emissions from our top-polluting sector.
Email your legislators now and urge them to include climate investments in the transportation budget. We can’t afford to fall further behind.
