Bishop Lovester Adams shares his experience at a recent @AirResources meeting and the need for the Board to take seriously the concerns of working Californians and not be dismissive. Featured in @FHDaily#RealWorldMatters https://t.co/aMAANjVFVo
California small business owners, faith leaders, farmers, community leaders, and residents gathered at Sacramento to advocate at the CARB hearing on cap & trade. Read their response to the hearing here: https://t.co/UyPoRvm1U6
Farmers, manufacturers in CA already pay some of the highest utility bills in the country. These costs factor into the prices CA pay for their food products. CARB’s proposal would hit CA in the pocketbook every time they fill shop for groceries or pay the electric bill. #AB398
CARB is proposing a price ceiling on gasoline that is nearly double what experts recommend, which means gas prices would rise significantly without any safeguards for consumers and small businesses. #AB398
Californians from Coachella Valley, Inland Empire, Los Angeles, Bakersfield, Central Valley came to Sacramento today to voice their concerns to the @AirResources asking them to contain costs and follow the #CNT law. #AB398
CARB’s higher gasoline prices mean higher costs for businesses - this means it will be harder for businesses to sustain good-paying jobs for Californian residents. #AB398
Why aren't our elected legislators stopping unelected regulators from increasing our fuel costs up to $1.09/gallon? We need our elected officials to tell @AirResources to follow the cap&trade law. Retweet & ask @AsmEGarciaAD56 to tell @AirResources to follow the law.
CA ranks in the top 8 states with the longest commute times, with 1.54 million workers driving longer than 60 minutes to get to work. CARB’s proposal would make commuting even more expensive. https://t.co/e10QN3hQLh…/cheat-sheet-states-lon…/17428945/ #AB398
15 CA cities rank within the top 20 cities with the most expensive transportation - a large part due to already high prices of gasoline. Why is CARB proposing to raise prices even more? https://t.co/cmuDcIAbq0
By 2020 CA could generate at least 21% more electricity than it needs, but residents are still paying over 40% more than the national average. CARB’s proposal would only exacerbate the already heavy burden on Californians. #AB398 https://t.co/J7WkcmMeeW
State regulators are ignoring the Legislature. Result: We all may pay more in fuel, food, energy, and our cost of living!
