Cleaner Air: Aid for Wildfire Smoke Vulnerable Communities

This act aims to improve indoor air quality, especially for those most vulnerable to wildfire smoke. Air pollution control agencies will receive grants to establish clean air centers and provide free air purifiers to eligible low-income households. This will help citizens protect their health during smoke events.
Key points
Establishment of "clean air centers" in areas at risk of wildfire smoke, accessible to residents.
Free air filtration units and replacement filters for low-income households vulnerable to smoke.
Distribution of educational materials on how to create a "clean air room" at home.
Collaboration between government agencies and community-based organizations to reach those in need.
