California AB2635 aims to support landscapers in transitioning to zero-emission equipment by creating voucher programs.

California AB2635, known as the Just Transition for Landscapers Act, seeks to address air pollution from small off-road engines used in landscaping. The act mandates that large and medium districts implement voucher programs to help landscapers transition to zero-emission equipment. These programs must be accessible to immigrant and informal workers, without requiring business licenses or other barriers. The act also limits fines for using gas-powered equipment and ensures privacy protections for voucher participants.
