Newsom wants voters to reject a new tax on rich people that would pay for more electric vehicles, warning in a new ad that a measure on the ballot won't help the environment but is instead “one company's cynical scheme to grab a huge taxpayer subsidy.”
“It is disappointing that the Governor would side with the Californian Republican Party and a handful of San Francisco billionaires who would rather kids breathe toxic, polluted air than pay their fair share,” the campaign said in an email to The Associated Press.
Newsom has been a big advocate for electric cars, approving more than $10 billion in new spending over the next several years to accelerate their adoption in California. Last month, California regulators approved new rules that will require new cars, pickup trucks and SUVs be electric, hydrogen or a gas-electric hybrid by 2035.
