Some Truck Makers Challenge Vital Clean Truck Partnership with California
Lawsuit seeks to upend a vital partnership to advance the development of zero-emission vehicles for commercial trucking, reduce pollution and save money
“The Clean Trucks Partnership helps ensure clean air, cut climate pollution and save truckers and fleets money – vital benefits for California’s nearly 40 million residents. It is deeply disappointing to see certain companies choose to litigate instead of rolling up their sleeves and working together on clean solutions that protect the health and pocketbooks of all Californians. In fact, California has been actively engaging stakeholders on additional solutions and funding strategies to support zero-emission vehicle deployment. We stand firmly with California in protecting the right to clean air, a safe climate and healthier communities for people across the Golden State.”
