Sasha Renée Pérez is an environmental champion. In 2021, Pérez was honored as Active San Gabriel Valley’s Elected Official of the Year for her work to reduce plastic waste and create dedicated bike lanes. She serves on Alhambra’s Vision Zero Sub-Committee where she has led the creation of an active transportation plan to eliminate traffic-related deaths and reduce greenhouse gas emissions by encouraging residents to use alternative modes of transportation. In 2022, Pérez was honored by Congresswoman Judy Chu as Congressional Woman of the Year for her work to create and fund Alhambra’s first Sustainability Plan, which aims to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

As State Senator, Pérez will prioritize funding for active transportation and public transportation to reduce the massive amounts of greenhouse gas emissions vehicles produce. She’ll hold big polluters accountable, reduce diesel truck congestion and emissions, and increase affordable access to renewable energy sources particularly in dense and low-income communities. She is the only candidate in this race endorsed by Sierra Club, California Environmental Voters and Foothill Environmental Coalition.
