“Now is the time to protect residents. Mostly lower income, mostly people of color. The people of California are watching us. It’s time to act.” @SenGonzalez33 closes out the comments on #SB1137.

Why do @CalPERS & @CalSTRS—the largest pension funds in the country—still have $42+ BILLION invested in fossil fuels? New op-ed spells out fossil energy’s fate with Congress on the brink of passing the #InflationReductionAct: bit.ly/3QECuqb

California’s wildfires are getting bigger. More destructive. They’ve wiped whole communities off the map. Oil drilling is #FuelingTheFlames. Go to fuelingtheflames.org to tell @GavinNewsom: STOP permitting more drilling!

It's #CleanEnergyHomesDay! Switching to all-electric homes is vital to climate stability. @CityofSanJose is leading the way as the largest US city to require all-electric new buildings. Now it's time to electrify our existing buildings. Voice your support! bit.ly/BEPdraft

See why all-electric homes are the wave of the future–and why you want to catch that wave, now. #theswitchison #LetsGoElectric #electrifyeverything dwell.com/article/all-electr… @MenloSpark2025 @CityofSanJose @CaClimateHealth
Moms understand that—without convenient, safe, affordable at-home EV charging—apartment & condo residents are less likely to switch to EVs, missing out on their environmental, health & financial benefits. Tell your state senator you want #EVCharging4All: bit.ly/support-sb1482
Take action today! Email your California Senator and ask them to support SB 1482 and EV Charging Access for All! Use our convenient action link here: bit.ly/support-sb1482 #equity #EVCharging4All #SB1482
