Oregon should move swiftly to adopt California’s stringent emissions rules for trucks, testifiers at a public hearing hosted by the state’s Department of Environmental Quality said.

Current trends suggest that Oregon will come up short of its ZEV adoption goals over the next decade, but near-term policy developments could salvage them.

California lawmakers allocated $2.7 billion for ZEVs in the 2021-2022 state budget this summer and designated $1.2 billion more in the next two years.
