What they posted

No one can say they’ve stood up to the fossil fuels industry like I have. I protected California’s clean car standards. Defended the Clean Air Act. Took on the Clean Water Act. Upheld the Endangered Species Act. My record speaks for itself. https://t.co/WPA5XGaqzw

Why it's Truth

California Department of Justice primary records (multiple 2017-2021 press releases) confirm Becerra's lawsuits and actions on both the Clean Water Act and Clean Air Act; no disconfirming sources found.
