SB 787 Green Industrial Policy Implementation

planned

SB 787 is a bill developed by UAW Region 6 and Senator Jerry McNerney to create infrastructure necessary to oversee and implement in-state supply chains, decarbonization, and affordability in key clean energy sectors in California, including zero-emission vehicles and batteries, offshore wind, and heat pumps. The bill aims to establish state institutions to coordinate, invest in, and fund these projects, ensuring community and labor voices are prioritized, holding companies accountable for environmental and community commitments, consulting Indigenous tribes, developing local supply chains, and expanding state-funded job training.
