Urge the Auto Alliance to Support Clean Vehicles
Urge the Auto Alliance to stop the spinning and the suing
A third of all U.S. global warming pollution comes from vehicles.
Under the Clean Air Act, states have the authority to go beyond federal vehicle pollution standards and adopt stronger standards for cleaner cars—like California's standards. So far, 10 other states have adopted California's clean car standards, and a growing number of states are considering them.
Unfortunately, rather than make the vehicles consumers want, automakers—led by their legal and lobbying group, the Auto Alliance—are trying to eliminate these clean car rules, making dubious claims about the cost and effectiveness of these standards.
However, the Union of Concerned Scientists engineers have dismantled these automaker arguments with a new vehicle design—the UCS Vanguard. This clean car model uses cost-effective, existing vehicle technologies and fuels to reduce pollution without sacrificing safety and performance—all while saving money at the pump.
Please contact the new president of the Auto Alliance, Dave McCurdy, and tell him that consumers want global warming solutions like the UCS Vanguard, not more spin and lawsuits.
Please make your letter personal by adding in your own thoughts and concerns. Every letter makes a difference, but customized letters have the greatest effect!
If you live in Arizona, Maryland, Minnesota, New Mexico, Tennessee, or Texas your state is considering adopting clean car standards.
Click on your state to take action supporting these initiatives.
If you live in California, Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Jersey, New York, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, or Washington, your state has already adopted the clean car standards.

Talking Points
The Auto Alliance represents BMW DaimlerChrysler, Ford, General Motors, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Porsche, Toyota, and Volkswagen. If you own vehicles made by any of these automakers, please mention that in your letter.
Do you wish your vehicle polluted less and saved you money at the pump like the UCS Vanguard would?
What health, economic, and environmental effects of global warming and smog-forming pollution are of personal concern to you and your community?
