Legislative Team Meeting

The 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.
We meet on the fourth 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.
