Univision/KUVS-TV (Sacramento) Segment on Valero's Initiative to Kill AB 32

MORE INFO: The Texas-based oil company Valero Energy Corp. is funding a deceptive initiative for the November 2010 ballot designed to kill Californias leading clean energy and air pollution control standards. The company claims its measure simply suspends AB 32, but in fact their initiative would halt the implementation of clean energy and pollution standards until Californias unemployment level drops below 5.5 percent for an entire year a market condition that has occurred just three times in the last 30 years!

Valero wants us to return to the dirty energy economy that pollutes our environment, jeopardizes our health and puts us at a global competitive disadvantage in the trillion dollar field of clean energy.

Valero was named one of the worst polluters in the U.S. (Source: The Political Economy Research Institute, University of Massachusetts, http://www.peri.umass.edu/Toxic-100-T... The company was hit with $711 million in fines by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency in 2005.
