Friend, here’s a dirty little secret about California politicians:

While many of our state lawmakers (yes, even Democrats!) claim to be “pro-climate,” they continue to delay and avoid making the urgent changes we need.

And one quick look at their corporate donor lists explains why.

The oil industry and their corporate allies have built up a $100 million war chest to thwart our progress. And with it, they’ve successfully blocked nearly every single bill we’ve introduced in the last four years.

Time is running out; temperatures are rising, wildfires are increasing, and every year we face more climate disasters than we have in the past. So we’re doubling down on our efforts to push through climate legislation, hold politicians accountable, and elect a climate majority in the Legislature.

Our lawmakers NEED to know that we refuse to back down. With a big election just a few months away, we need your help to begin holding them accountable. Will you chip in a few dollars today?

Outside of legislation to reduce single-use plastic signed into law last month, California hasn’t passed any major climate policy in four years.

We’re committed to building on last month’s legislative victory and continuing to fight for bold climate action. We have the tools and strategy we need to succeed – we just need our legislators to understand the urgency of the moment. 

By 2024, a third of our lawmakers will transition out of office. That means we have an opportunity to usher in a new wave of true environmental champions who will finally support our climate agenda. That means supporting our key priorities, including:

• SB 260: Climate Corporate Accountability Act
• SB 1314: Stopping Big Oil’s Greenwashing
• AB 2201: Community Drinking Water Protection Act

With only a few months to Election Day, your financial support NOW is critical to establishing the infrastructure we need to mobilize voters this fall.

Now is the chance to set us up for success: Are you able to give a few dollars to fight for transformational climate action in California?

Thank you for your support. We appreciate it!
