Rep. Nanette Barragán (CA-44) May 6, joined the CEO of LA Cleantech Incubator (LACI) Matt Petersen, representatives from the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles, and residents of the Rancho San Pedro public housing complex, for a tour and demonstration of the LACI Rancho San Pedro electric vehicle (EV) car share program.
The program inspired Rep. Barragán’s authorship of H.R. 6662, the EVs for All Act, which she introduced in Feb. 9, 2022.
The EVs for All Act would establish a U.S. Department of Energy grant program to support electric vehicle car sharing for public housing residents, with investments in building EV charging stations in underserved and pollution-impacted communities. Barragán and LACI CEO Matt Petersen participated in a demonstration of the LACI Rancho San Pedro EV car share program.
Petersen urged Congress to pass H.R. 6662 to replicate proven zero-emission vehicle programs that prioritize EV access for communities suffering from pollution and inadequate access to clean transportation options.
