LANDOVER, Md., April 22 (UPI) -- A pilot program to expand fleets of eco-friendly vehicles will be funded by $300 million in federal stimulus funds, U.S. Vice President Joe Biden said.
"For city and state governments across this country, every day is Earth Day thanks to the ambitious commitments they are making to green their vehicles and transit systems," Biden said Wednesday during a visit to Landover, Md. "Now it's time for Washington to help them deliver on those promises."
