The electricity grid is already overloaded, build more power plants. Also, apartment owners don’t have the money to upgrade the electrical services in their units.

It is a very high bill for truck drivers, as this system is defective.

Electricity prices are through the roof. Many families have to choose between paying their electricity bill or their rent.

Petra A. – English

We don’t have enough energy in California; we have many blackouts. Now, imagine everything being electric—we will be worse off. I don’t want to be told what I have to buy; I want to buy what I like.

Linda F. – English

Our grid cannot handle the current demand. It definitely won’t be able to handle this, and it should be a choice, not a forced issue.

Maria – English

This will hurt low- to middle-income populations, and with that, the economy as a whole.

Kahnna F. – English

Banning new gas cars is not the answer. To me, this is bigger than just the car ban—it feels like our choices are being taken away. I understand there’s an environmental problem, but there are other ways to handle it.

Manuel M. – English

Now is NOT the time; we are moving too fast on this. Look at the problems it has already caused—expensive replacement parts, not enough charging stations, and costs that are far too high for the average family.

Julie N. – English

Many middle-class citizens can’t afford an electric car. Our PG&E bills are already too high just to keep our homes and families secure. With all of California’s regulations, it’s becoming too hard for anyone to survive.

Cheryl B. – English

We are not ready. Look at the electric cars currently are overpriced, and when they break down, they are so expensive to fix. Plus, who can even afford one of these cars? Certainly not the middle class. Most people can’t afford to buy a house or even rent in California.
