    If the temperature reaches 100 degrees, you can take TriMet to a cooling center, even if you cannot afford fare. On buses, please tell the operator as you come on board that you’re heading to a cooling center.

    We all have a role to play in emergency preparedness. Lives were saved in June by neighbors checking on neighbors, and friends and family making sure vulnerable Oregonians had a place to go to cool down.

    Because of the impacts of climate change, it’s clear that we will face very high temperatures again. What we learned from June’s extreme heat wave is that we must do more at every level—state, county, local, and individually—to prepare for extreme weather.

    Electric vehicles are the future of transportation. The Biden-Harris administration's Bipartisan Infrastructure Deal will build on the work we've done here in Oregon to increase EV access by making the largest investment in EV infrastructure in our country's history. 👏

    Just now, the President and a bipartisan group of senators announced their agreement on the details of a once-in-a-generation investment in our infrastructure. Stay tuned for updates.

    The harsh reality is that we're going to see more wildfires like Bootleg. They're hotter, they're more fierce, and obviously much more challenging to tackle. They are a sign of the changing climate impacts — and we need to take action.

    These policies will create clean energy jobs, reduce emissions, and make sure the economic, environmental, and health benefits of our clean energy economy reach all Oregonians—especially those who have been disproportionately impacted by climate change and pollution.
