Now more than ever I feel the need to protect the wins we have secured in Washington state, and ensure we only move forward. No time for steps backward!
When a big diesel truck passes you by on the highway or in your neighborhood, you can see and smell it. It doesn’t have to be this way. More and more zero-emission, clean and quiet trucks are hitting the road, but that progress could stall out if some truck makers don't play by the rules. There are better, cleaner ways to get us and goods around that won’t cause more smog or hurt your community.
You can feel proud to live in a state where we are making progress in cleaning up pollution from cars and trucks. There is now a national effort targeted at repealing our rules in Washington that would make sure truck makers do their part.
The Advanced Clean Truck rule is a critical tool for Washington to clean up dirty diesel pollution from big trucks, vans, and buses, and help protect your lungs and neighborhood. We need to protect it!
