| Comment | Thank you for accepting comments on the Cap-and-Trade Auction
Proceeds Draft Investment Plan. The rebates and vouchers proposed
in the Draft Plan (pages B-6 and B-7) should be expanded and be
called a “Transportation Dividend” and a “Household
Dividend.” The Transportation Dividend would assist low-and
middle-income drivers, transit users, people who rideshare, and
others. The Household Dividend would assist low-and middle-income
homeowners and renters and encourage the purchase of Energy Star
products that renters can also purchase easily. It should be sent
to all Californians. It should expire before the next year, and if
it is not used, it would default back to the state to be used for
other investments. The Dividends can reside on a debit card.
