Repair California - Constitutional Convention
Day by day, evidence piles up demonstrating that California government is not only broken, it has become destructive to our future. The recent failure of the Legislature to negotiate a budget, in the direst of circumstances, is just another straw on the camel’s already-broken back. Our state’s founders gave us the tool to take this step — with a constitutional convention. - www.RepairCalifornia.org |

California Senate Bill 375
Senate Bill 375 by Senator Pro Tem Darrell Steinberg is the nation's first law to control greenhouse gas emissions by curbing sprawl. SB 375 provides emissions-reducing goals for which regions can prepare; integrates disjointed planning activities such as land use, housing allocation and pollution mitigation; and provides incentives for local governments and developers to follow new transportation and environment-conscious growth patterns. SB 375 enhances the Air Resources Board's (ARB) ability to reach AB 32 goals. - learn more |
