Thank you to our District 25 State Senator Anthony Portantino for co-authoring CA SB252 to support divesting CA State Pensions from Fossil Fuels! The bill has passed through the CA Senate and goes to the Assembly for approval Divesting @CalPERS ~$9.4 billion @CalSTRS ~ $5.4 ! The bill will prohibit new investments in fossil fuel companies and provide they divest any current holdings in these companies by 2030, with an additional 5-year off-ramp should the funds encounter specified market conditions.
Thank you to both of our Glendale State Assembly representatives, AD 52 Wendy Carrillo and AD 44 Laura Friedman, for supporting Assembly Bill 1423. This bill will prohibit the installation of any more artificial turf playing fields that have the toxic chemical PFAS in them starting on January 1, 2025. Let's continue to oppose artificial turf and advocate for natural, cooler, and environmentally sustainable surfaces for our schools, playgrounds, parks, and sports fields!
In case you're interested in kicking May (bike month) into high gear but need some tips on how to bike safely, our friends at Go Glendale are hosting a workshop just for you on Thursday!
