Karla R. – English
We need a slow transition. Life is already expensive, and it’s hard to keep up with all the requirements. No to electric trucks.
Kathy H. – English
We need to fight this bill. Twelve years will come quickly, and the Latino population will suffer the most in California. This is where we are the most skilled, and it will affect us greatly.
Manny L. – English
These laws disproportionately affect the Hispanic and Black communities more than any other. Lower-income Hispanics cannot afford solar panels, nor can they afford an electric vehicle.
Manuel M. – Spanish
La asequibilidad y mi sustento son lo más importante en la conversación sobre la transición energética. Trabajo para una empresa petrolera, y este mandato amenaza mi capacidad de trabajar y cuidar de mi familia.
Esther B.-G. – English
The economy is not progressing at the same pace as the changes.
Seanna H. – English
The most important thing about this transition is having a sufficient energy grid to support it. It’s easy for people who have energy at their finger tips to write these absurd bills and laws, but for common people in this state, we are struggling to stay afloat.
Lucy C. – English

Bibi L. – English
It is an unreasonable demand for businesses and individuals to be forced to make these changes. It takes away our freedom of choice.
Jacqueline M. – English
I will not give up my gas car because we don’t have enough energy for this for everyone. It is, in my opinion, discrimination. I’m not able to take public transportation due to my health issues.
Ruth G. – English
We need affordable energy because it’s too expensive for low-income.
