Comment:
Although CARB may be trying to achieve the lofty and ambitious goal of 50% cut in petroleum consumption by 2030, it needs to exercise caution in how this policy is implemented to avoid harming our economy or further burdening struggling families. California gas prices are already among the nation's highest according to GasBuddy data. Consumers can't afford to pay more for gas, especially the nearly 1/3 of Californians who now live in poverty. While CARB's proposal may be made with good intentions, unintended consequences of its implementation such as gas price increases and lost jobs are likely to hurt the poor the most.
