Electric School Bus Coalition Asks Biden-Harris Administration to Invest $25 Billion to Accelerate Transition to a Clean Ride for Kids
Washington, D.C. — Today, members of the national Electric School Bus (ESB) Coalition — a diverse partnership of equity, labor, public health, clean energy, and environmental organizations — delivered a letter to the Biden-Harris administration calling for the White House to champion $25 billion in electric school bus funding as part of its Build Back Better package. Electric school buses can help communities reduce harmful air pollution, protect children’s health, and even boost academic performance.
