 | Let’s Put Our Wealth to Work on Climate Investments Given that California has a historic budget surplus of over $97 billion, now is the time to make a down payment on our future and double down on our climate investment. Governor Newsom’s budget proposals are historic but insufficient to meet our biggest challenge: making California fossil fuel free in a way that is economically and racially just. We need to invest 5% of the state budget on climate. Watch our video to learn more about what a Climate Courage Budget entails. |

|  | Getting Out the Vote for Clean Water! We believe everyone is entitled to safe, accessible water. Unfortunately, in the Central Valley of California, there are communities that do not have access to clean water, because Big Oil, Big Gas, and Big Agriculture are overpumping and contaminating water, and there’s little local or state accountability. So we’ve launched a campaign to #ReclaimOur Water to build community power for water equity in the Central Valley. Join one of our upcoming virtual text banks to make sure Central Valley voters are voting for clean water in the Primary Election → |
