Statement from Clean Fuels NY Coalition on State Senate Passage of Clean Fuel Standard

“We are thrilled that  the State Senate has overwhelmingly passed a Clean Fuel Standard (CFS) for the third year in a row. This is one of the most effective tools we have to reduce air pollution from  transportation, and it has already proven effective in Canada as well as in California, Washington, and Oregon.  Now it’s time for New York to follow suit.

“We commend Senate Majority Leader Andrea Stewart-Cousins, Senator Parker, and every senator  who voted in favor of this common sense bill, making  a clear commitment to reducing transportation pollution. Now the Assembly must step up and pass this measure for the good of the state and the health of all New Yorkers.”
