February 23 @ 1 PM ET - Building Better School Buses

Watch the event recording.

The Infrastructure and Investment Jobs Act will deliver thousands of electric school buses nationwide, helping millions of school children breathe cleaner air on their rides to and from school. With $5 billion allocated for replacing existing diesel buses with new electric and low-emissions ones, this bipartisan law represents historic investments in EVs and the health of our communities.

Clean Energy for America Education Fund and Moms Clean Air Force will partner with the EPA to host a virtual panel discussion highlighting these investments, outlining the Administration’s plans to implement them, touting the economic and public health benefits of doing so, and demonstrating the actions already underway to make this transition in local communities.
