John Carvelli has been appointed to the California Horse Racing Board. Carvelli brings a diverse background to this position, having previously served as a Partner and Executive Vice President at LIBERTY Dental Plan. He is also involved with various organizations such as The FAMILY San Francisco and the North American Boxing Federation.
In other news, Governor Newsom reported that there have been over 1,000 arrests in Bakersfield since April due to an ongoing enforcement collaboration between the California Highway Patrol and Bakersfield Police Department. This collaborative effort has proven successful in reducing crime rates in the area.
Additionally, California saw an increase in zero-emission vehicle sales last quarter with 1 in 4 new car buyers choosing alternatives to gasoline-powered cars and trucks. This is a positive step towards reducing carbon emissions and promoting sustainable transportation options.
Furthermore, California has received a significant boost towards improving its power grid with a $600 million grant from the U.S. Department of Energy. This grant will be used to enhance energy savings and reliability for consumers.
These recent appointments and developments demonstrate Governor Newsom's commitment to promoting efficiency, sustainability, and safety within the state of California.
