Today’s episode
In this week’s Climate Dispatch – our first of the 2022 legislative session! – Representative Becca White joins VNRC’s Johanna Miller and VCV’s Lauren Hierl to outline the just-introduced “Transportation Innovation Act.” Rep. White provides an important, high-level frame around the vehicle electrification, high efficiency vehicle, transit, micro-mobility and other transportation innovation and equity programs in H.522. As you’ll hear, this bill is a fundamental step forward to make progress on the requirements of the Climate Action Plan and key climate priorities for the 2022 legislative session.
Call to action
To start of 2022, we have two calls to action:
- If your representative is a sponsor of the Transportation Innovation Act, please send a quick email to thank them for their support. Find the list of bill sponsors here and find your representative’s contact information here.
- To help ensure action on these critical issues—and to help grow our network of engaged Vermonters—please invite at least two of your friends, family, or colleagues to sign up for the Dispatch by registering here.
Thanks for all you do!
