Communities - and the state - shouldn't be left in the dark when oil refineries close. That's why we need #SB1259. https://t.co/lwAUHjTonR

AB 2218 has unanimously passed the California State Assembly and now advances to the Senate. This landmark legislation seeks to address historic inequities in California water policy and strengthen Tribal sovereignty in water governance.

@SenBlakespear @CBECal @APEN4EJ @cejapower Thank you for supporting transparency and good planning!

[Senator Catherine S. Blakespear @SenBlakespear]

Many sectors of the energy industry are required to plan for what happens if they close their facilities. So should oil refineries. That's why I authored #SB1259. I am glad to report that the Senate passed the bill today. @APEN4EJ @CBECal @cejapower Read more. https://t.co/dDhJ487BE7

While the Trump administration works to dismantle key climate pollution protections, California can lead with the Clean Skies Act to cut diesel pollution and protect public health. Californians: tell your assemblymember to vote YES on AB 1777: https://t.co/KSF4qN1dKU

Today was a good day. 👏🏼

[Karuk Tribe @Karuk_Tribe]

We’re happy to share that our two Karuk-sponsored bills (AB 2218 and AB 1891) made it out of the Assembly Appropriations Committee today. As did AB 1699 which we strongly support. Many thanks to @Ash_Kalra @AsmConnolly @AsmChrisRogers @BuffyWicks. Onto the floor!

#AB2494 “would pave the way for giving tribes a say in managing the lands for the first time since they were forcibly evicted more than a century ago, and for integrating Indigenous knowledge — like cultural burning — into the forests.” 🙏🏼 @AsmChrisRogers + @ilike_mike

We are proud to share our sponsored bill AB2218 by @Ash_Kalra moved out of its first set of policy committees yesterday. We’re proud to cosponsor along side @ssbandofmiwoks and greatly appreciate the remarks in committee by @AsmConnolly @ChrisRogers_CA and @asmstevebennett

[Senator Catherine S. Blakespear @SenBlakespear]

We can and must responsibly support people and wild animals to exist in a California where we are all under growing pressures and cumulative threats like extreme heat, frequent drought and intense wildfires that animals respond to by moving in search of resources to survive. That means investing in science-based, situation-specific, proactive strategies to minimize negative interactions and prevent escalation to conflicts that pose risks for people and animals. #SB1135 proposes a program to better protect people, wildlife and communities.

[CCAEJ @CCAEJ]

AB/SB 131 would:
❌ Gut CEQA — our only tool to fight pollution in our neighborhoods
❌ Greenlight massive industrial projects with NO environmental review
❌ Sacrifice clean air, water, and habitat for corporate interests
❌ Silence working-class, Black, Brown, and Tribal voices
