Senator O'Mara joined WHCU Radio's Joe Salzone on the October 14th "Newsmaker" interview to discuss a state mandate being enacted by Governor Hochul that, beginning in 2025, will require an increasingly higher percentage of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles -- buses, pickups, vans, garbage trucks, long-haul trucks and the like -- to be electric, zero-emissions vehicles.

Known as the Advanced Clean Truck (ACT) rule, Senator O'Mara discusses the consequences for numerous industries, including trucking companies vital to the overall fabric of our state and local economies, municipal highway and public works departments, small business owners, and other consumers.
