Gov. Newsom and the state Republican Party are in agreement on Prop. 30, backed by Lyft
is doubling down on his opposition of Proposition 30, a tax on the wealthy to fund climate projects. In a newly released political ad, Newsom takes aim at the prop and its major backer, ride-share company Lyft. In it, he calls the measure a "Trojan horse" and says "it’s devised by a single corporation to funnel state income taxes to benefit their company."
In a statement a Lyft spokesperson said: "When environmental groups approached us about partnering on their plan to achieve our state’s transformational climate and clean air goals, we were excited at the prospect. The recent heatwave and growing number of wildfires throughout the state are an important reminder of how urgent it is for us to act on the climate crisis, and how we’re all going to have to do our part.
