SUMMARY:August Climate Circle: Status of California Climate Action in Wake of OBBB Act
DESCRIPTION:Status of California Climate Action in Wake of OBBB Act\nIn early July Congress passed the budget reconciliation bill\, outrageously and erroneously dubbed “One Big Beautiful Bill.” It became law on July 4th. Among many other impacts\, this bill guts federal climate and clean energy funding throughout the country\, including eliminating rebates and tax credits for solar and wind farms\, rooftop solar\, electric vehicles and energy-efficient home upgrades.  Since solar and wind are currently less expensive sources of energy than fossil fuels\, utility rates are predicted to jump another ten percent in the next few years. \nSome of the Questions to be Discussed\nHow can California continue it’s clean energy initiatives without the federal funding provided by the Inflation Reduction Act? What can we do in our state\, county and cities to keep moving forward toward a healthier environment for all? \nJoin us on Monday\, August 4th\, 2025\, noon to 1 PM to discuss how the climate-related features of this budget act will affect California businesses and residents and what we can do about it. \nSign up here to receive the discussion materials and Zoom link. \nCome curious. Leave inspired. Everyone is welcome. \n\nImage credit: Akil Mazumder on Pexels

SUMMARY:Legislative Team Meeting—Special Meeting
DESCRIPTION:One-Time Change! We’re moving the August meeting ahead a week to September 4 because the last day for bills to be referred from the Appropriations Committees to the floor is Friday\, August 30\, one day after the original August meeting day. When we meet on September 4\, we’ll know which bills are going to be up for a floor vote this year. We’ll have a good starting place for a discussion of which bills need our efforts in support or opposition.  \nThe Legislative Team focuses on the Sacramento lawmakers who represent Contra Costa residents. We cultivate strong relationships with these state senators and assembly members so we can influence their votes on important legislation. And we get the word out to our fellow constituents when letters and phone calls are needed to convince lawmakers to vote the right way. \nWe meet on the last Thursday of the month to discuss the progress of California state bills that significantly impact Contra Costa County’s transition to a fossil-free\, environmentally just future. We recommend actions for 350 Contra Costa Action members and others  to gain legislators’ support for our positions. Everyone is welcome to attend our meetings. For newbies\, the meetings are a way to learn about the legislative process and our environmental policies. Contact the team leader for more information and the zoom link to the next meeting. \n
