Happy #EarthDay ๐ Today I'm imagining a just, healthy & regenerative future for our planet and its people - a future w/o fossil fuel extraction in BIPOC communities and a future w/o fossil fuel extraction period. @sensusaneggman will you lead or hold us back #YesonSB467
#SB467 protects Californians -- a majority of which are low-income and BIPOC -- from the dangers of dangerous drilling practices while offering fossil fuel workers protections steps toward a just transition.
Call these Senators today to tell them we demand a #YesonSB467
#AB1087 is modeled on community-powered mutual aid systems during disasters. Led by @APEN4EJ, @CEJApower and @NRDC, the bill is the ONLY frontline led climate resilience bill this year. @AsmBillQuirk @AsmEGarciaAD56 @SantiagoAD53 @AsmAutumnBurke please support AB1087โผ๏ธ #CalLeg
We say #YESonSB467 to protect Black and brown communities from environmental racism and fossil fuel pollution. @Scott_Wiener and @MoniqueLimonCA thank you for protecting BIPOC communities and prioritizing their health over the interests of fossil fuel executives!!
I #StandWithKern and Delano City Councilman and Mayor @BryanOsorioT on opposing an ordinance that could greenlight 67,000+ oil and gas wells in @CountyofKern. Environmental justice means doing no harm. Frontline communities deserve better.

#OscarGrant 's family has been fighting courageously for him in the face of racism, violence and systemic injustice. We need to stand WITH THEM and DEMAND that @NancyOMalleyDA1 file charges against killer BART officer Anthony Pirone NOW.
These senseless killings must stop and we must hold murderous police officers accountable. I stand with @Blklivesmatter and we demand that @AlamedaCountyDA reopen the case against Officer Anthony Pirone for the murder of #OscarGrant
@AlamedaCountyDA - please reopen the case with former BART police officer Anthony Pirone to hold him accountable for behavior that led to the death of Oscar Grant
Scramble away Joe. Nichols does not have the record or the trust needed. An EPA director in 2021 needs a clear environmental justice record. What happened to all the campaign talk about climate being a racial justice issue?
Big Oil is threatening the health of Californians. Yet, @CAGovernor@GavinNewsom continues to allow oil drilling near homes #InactionIsInjustice
Call Newsom at 855-572-9495 & urge him to:
๐ROLL out a 2500ft buffer
โSTOP new fossil fuel permits
๐งDROP existing oil production
1 yr after @GavinNewsom's empty promises, CA still allows Big Oil to drill near homes, schools primarily in Black & Latinx communities
@CAGovernor failed to take environmental justice seriously #InactionIsInjustice Protect ppl's health not fossilfuel wealth #SetbacksNow@VoicesCA
STAND WITH EJ COMMUNITIES AND CALL TODAY! let @CASenCaballero@SenBenHueso @SenateHertzberg know that what happened in Sen. Natural Resources on Wednesday is completely unacceptable. #YesonAB345
Three California Dems @SenateHertzberg @SenBenHueso and @CASenCaballero voted in line with Republicans and the fossil fuel industry on Wednesday. Senators, step up or step aside - if frontline communities canโt trust you to protect their families, who can they trust?
#YesonAB345
San Fernando Valley Senator @SenateHertzberg @hertzieLA needs to apologize to @katie4council and Black, Latinx, and Indigenous communities in CA on the frontlines of Environmental Justice and oil extraction. Racist bullying is not acceptable. #NoDrillingWhereWereLiving
NO @SenateHertzberg, we refuse to let you demean us. The racist comments by @SenateHertzberg saying "we have not done our homework" & "we don't know what we're doing" enforce white supremacy by suggesting our lived experiences & our scientific research do not count. #ImwithKatie
