Good day fellow Californian -

We all want the same in life - the opportunity of life, liberty &
the pursuit of happiness. In that quest we seek clean air, water,
healthy food sources, the ability to provide for ourselves & our
families. Technology is developing at rapid paces in all industries
- some will argue faster than the public can handle (AI as an
example). With that, the heavy duty engine manufacturers have
worked tirelessly to create clean engine exhaust solutions. The new
proposals for 2024 & newer cannot be met by any of the engine
manufacturers for several years. This means new heavy duty trucks &
Motorcoaches won't be able to be sold new in California for at
least the next 3 years. This decline will lead to school children
unable to attend extracurricular activities such as sporting
events, band competitions, camps due to equipment shortages. We
aren't even talking about the rising cost of shipping for goods &
services from the trucking companies, purely motorcoach companies
alone & their passengers will drastically suffer. The largest
consuming market of motorcoach travel is likely students, traveling
workers, the military & lower income earners trying to visit loved
ones. Actions have consequences. Your ambitions at this time are
over zealous & will negatively impact those that most need
assistance. I kindly ask you to adjust your mandates to be more
inclusive to all Californians & its visitors. Thank you.  Clint
