Both letters highlight the fact that no other school bus technology manufactured today reduces more emissions than electric vehicle school buses; and both letters highlight that investments in electric school buses would drive the demand for new electric buses and promote cost parity between electric school buses and older technologies. The message from these diverse groups to Congress is clear: Investing in electric school buses supports American workers and American manufacturers.
