Big win! CA just became the 7th state to adopt legislation to keep utilities from slipping lobbying & political costs into customer bills.

Thank you @governor.ca.gov for signing AB 1167 and Asm. Marc Berman for authoring this critical legislation 🙏

Call for CA legislators and Gov. Newsom to move beyond 'band-aid' bills for environmental justice and address root causes.

See our full post about Governor Gavin Newsom's approval and veto choices for 2025 EJ legislation.

Thank you @governor.ca.gov for signing #SB655! And to all the state leaders who supported this bill, especially Senator Henry Stern for your leadership. We're one step closer to ensuring all Californians live in a home that can maintain a safe indoor temperature.

Though we’re disappointed to not see urgently needed cleanup this year, we’re grateful to the leaders who fought to #FixSB131 at the end of this legislative session. You are true champions for environmental justice. Let's get this across the finish line in 2026.

🚨 Newsom just signed a bill that will EXPAND oil drilling in California 🚨

This signals “what could become a dangerous new pattern: allowing Big Oil to hold California hostage every time a refinery announces a potential closure.”

Read more: www.sfchronicle.com/opinion/open...
Newsom’s deal to cut energy costs includes giveaways to Big Oil, more drilling
OPINION: “What Californians need now are steady, clear-eyed leaders willing to stand with workers, communities and families — not fossil fuel billionaires looking for one last payday.”

The California Department of Housing and Community Development is considering whether to designate the City of Fresno as a Pro-housing City. A “Prohousing City” reduces barriers to housing, and can earn the designation plus receive priority access to grants for affordable housing.

Well, that was certainly ... something. The 2025 CA Legislative Session has wrapped up, and we have shared our thoughts on several bills related to environmental justice.

We need to improve AB 617 to directly reduce pollution in and near frontline communities. No accountability = no results. Local land use & CARB enforcement must align with community-approved priorities. #ClimateJustice #Environmentaljustice #CleanAir

Toxic industries shouldn’t get a free pass. SB 131’s exemption for “advanced manufacturing” threatens groundwater & public health, especially in communities already burdened by pollution. Lawmakers must fix this. Read more from Deja McCauley via Maven’s Notebook.
