"California has been the epicenter of innovation in America over the last 100 years.  Our companies have revolutionized the entertainment, agriculture, transportation, energy, and technology sectors. Today, it is increasingly clear that clean energy is the next frontier in the innovation economy.
 
The California Climate Leadership legislative package puts California at the forefront of the fight against climate change. I work with companies everyday that are developing cutting edge clean technology solutions, and Senate President pro Tem Kevin de León’s legislative leadership will provide the regulatory certainty and public investments necessary to enable innovation and job creation here in California. The clean technology industry is one of the fastest growing sectors of the economy, creating tens of thousands of good jobs in the past decade. This legislation will spur California to lead the clean tech economy for decades to come."
