NJ Advocates Call For Continued Implementation of the Advanced Clean Trucks Rules

NJ organizations from across the state and advocacy spaces joined together to call on Governor Murphy’s office to continue their support for the implementation of the Advanced Clean Trucks rules and regulations. The rules would support efforts to curb local air pollution levels by incrementally increasing the number of electric vehicles on the road, thereby decreasing levels of diesel exhaust and related air pollution. This work has co-benefits of supporting climate mitigation policies as well as public health goals.
