October 4, 2017
Today, Congresswoman Doris Matsui (D-CA) issued the following statement after the California Air Resources Board (CARB) approved Volkswagen's California Zero Emissions Vehicle (ZEV) Investment Plan that will bring $44 million to the City of Sacramento to support ZEV infrastructure:
"Today's vote to approve Electrify America's proposal to designate the City of Sacramento as its first Green City is outstanding news for the region. The funding will benefit disadvantaged communities, improve our air, and position Sacramento as a smart city of the future. I applaud the city and their partners for putting together a proposal that will bring enhanced mobility and environmental benefits to our city."
