Aguilar announced 20 FY2027 community project funding requests totaling $49,739,093. The list includes the Omnitrans battery-electric bus and charging infrastructure project, with a summary saying it supports clean public transit, reduces greenhouse gas emissions and improves air quality for the region.

The House Clerk’s 2026 roll-call index for the 119th Congress, 2nd Session lists recorded votes as compiled through the electronic voting machine, with the latest displayed roll call on July 23, 2026; it shows no House roll-call action during August 27-29, 2026 that would newly deliver or reverse this air-quality commitment.
Assessments
Aguilar made concrete federal efforts tied to air quality, including securing $1 million for Omnitrans zero-emission buses and charging infrastructure intended to reduce pollution and improve Inland Empire air quality, and later requesting additional FY2027 funding for clean transit. That materially advances the promise during his current House term, but the evidence shows localized project funding and continued efforts rather than a completed, broader improvement in California air quality statewide. Therefore partial credit is stronger than full delivery.
Aguilar materially advanced the goal by securing $1,000,000 for Omnitrans battery-electric buses and charging infrastructure, a project explicitly aimed at reducing air pollution and improving air quality. That is a concrete deliverable in office, but the promise is broader than one funded project and the evidence does not show California-wide air-quality improvement was achieved, so this is partial credit rather than full delivery.
The promise is broad and ongoing: to work to improve California's air quality. The evidence shows Aguilar materially advanced that goal in federal office by securing $1 million in community project funding for Omnitrans zero-emission electric buses and charging infrastructure, explicitly tied to reducing air pollution and improving Inland Empire air quality. That is a concrete same-term action and partial delivery, but it does not establish that California's air quality was broadly improved or that the full policy outcome was achieved statewide. His later FY2027 request further supports continued effort but remains prospective.
