SB 1259 has already passed the Senate and its Asse

SB 1259 has already passed the Senate and its Assembly policy committees. It now heads to the floor for a full vote in the Assembly.

For generations, communities in Carson, Wilmington, and Benicia have lived in the shadow of refinery operations - breathing in toxic air, watching neighbors get sick, dealing with flares and explosions.

Now, as refineries close or idle, those same communities are being asked to plan for what’s next without knowing the most basic facts:
How contaminated is the site?
How much will cleanup cost?
Who’s paying for it?

Every other heavily polluting industry in California - coal, nuclear, solar - has to disclose this before they shut down. Refineries don’t. #sb1259 , the Refinery Transparency Act, closes that gap.

Big Oil is lobbying hard against this bill. Lawmakers need to hear from you instead. Contact your Assemblymember now to help us get it across the finish line!

💧 Offer water often, even before they’re thirsty. Avoid juice or sugary drinks.
👕 Dress them in loose, light-colored clothing.
🌡️ Skip outdoor play and sports during the hottest part of the day.
🏊 Cool off with water play or spend time in air-conditioned places like libraries, malls, or movie theaters.
👶 Never leave a baby or child alone in a car. Vehicles can reach deadly temperatures in just minutes, even with the windows cracked.

Don’t take chances with the heat.

California Senate Bill 868 (SB 868), known as the

California Senate Bill 868 (SB 868), known as the Plug and Play Solar Act or Plug-In Solar Act, is proposed legislation introduced by Senator Scott Wiener. It aims to make small “balcony solar” or portable solar generation systems legal and easy to use without complex utility approval.

This bill would allow renters, condo owners, and apartment dwellers to generate their own clean energy. It would give households an affordable way to offset up to a fifth of their daily electricity usage by plugging small panels into a sunny patio or balcony and would help communities scale up distributed renewable energy and lower carbon emissions quickly and cheaply.

California Senate Bill 222 (Authored by Senator Sc

California Senate Bill 222 (Authored by Senator Scott Wiener), known as the Heat Pump Access Act, aims to accelerate residential building electrification and cut greenhouse gas emissions by streamlining and standardizing local permitting and inspection rules for residential heat pump water heaters and HVAC systems.

Inconsistent local permitting slows down climate goals, drives up costs, and prevents households from quickly adopting clean indoor air technology that protects against extreme heat and fossil-fuel pollution.
