✓ Direct financial relief through payments to vast majority of taxpayers and dependents | ✕ Debit cards only provided to registered vehicle owners |
✓ Preserves vital road safety and transportation improvement projects | ✕ Eliminates $500 million in funding for road safety repairs and transportation improvement projects |
✓ Protects thousands of transportation jobs | ✕ Kills 7,000 middle-class construction jobs |
✓ Protects the will of the voters | ✕ No guarantee that gas prices will reduce. Oil companies can continue to charge whatever they can |
There are several proposals to provide consumers relief from rising gas prices. The plan by Senate President Toni Atkins and Assembly Speaker Anthony Rendon is the most responsible approach.
The Legislative Leaders’ Plan provides real relief to consumers through a $200 payment to taxpayers and their dependents. It also protects thousands of transportation jobs and road safety and transportation improvement projects.
On the other hand, the proposal by Governor Gavin Newsom would eliminate $500 million in funding for road safety repairs and transportation improvement projects – killing thousands of middle-class jobs and making our roads and bridges less safe.
There’s no guarantee gas prices will be reduced under Newsom’s plan. Big oil can continue to charge what they want. We need real relief for Californians that doesn’t sacrifice safer roads and quality jobs.
