The Clean Car and Clean Air Act, a landmark initiative developed by Move LA founder Denny Zane in partnership with Nick Josefowitz at SPUR in San Francisco, qualified for the November ballot earlier this year and has been designated as Proposition 30. It would generate $3.5-$4 billion annually—a total of $100 billion over 20 years—providing California with a stable funding source to increase the number of zero-emission vehicles on the road—both battery-electric and hydrogen-fuel-cell-powered light-duty cars, heavy-duty trucks, ships, trains and aircraft. The measure would also help prevent and suppress wildfires.

Move LA and SPUR began public online discussions in 2020 with colleagues and partners that led to this ballot measure. It would be the largest single investment in climate change prevention and adaptation in the United States, and the $100 billion would be used in this way: 

$45 billion for subsidies to help consumers & organizations (such as LA Metro or LADOT) afford clean cars and trucks
$35 billion to expand EV and ZEV charging/fueling infrastructure 
$20 billion to fight and prevent catastrophic wildfires 

The proposition would require that half of the funding for vehicle and infrastructure investments (more than $40 billion) must benefit low-income and disadvantaged communities, and the remainder must prioritize funding for middle-income Californians. The measure also provides billions for wildfire prevention, including grants to retrofit homes so as to increase the likelihood of survival if and when wildfires strike—this funding is also focused on low-income communities.

The ballot measure would generate this funding with a small 1.75% increase on personal income over $2 million to ensure the funding is provided by those who can afford it. Current and proposed programs are not enough to address these issues.
