| Comment | Thank you for accepting these 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.
