Click here to tell your legislators to vote YES on AB 1301 (Bloom), AB 1323 (Mitchell) and AB 649 (Nazarian). These bills would place a moratorium on fracking in California until the process has been proven to be safe. We need at least one of these strong bills to pass out of the Assembly Appropriations committee.

The Texas Legislature has passed SB 198, a landmark bill called for by Clean Water Action. The bill would remove the ability of homeowner associations in Texas to ban drought-resistant landscaping, or xeriscaping. Many or most of Texas' HOAs – estimated to number around 25,000 -- have rules in place that ban xeriscaping in portions of a homeowner's yard that are visible from the street.
While California is considering many good bills to address fracking, one bill threatens to codify weak industry friendly regulations – AB 7 (Wieckowski). Among its many problems, AB 7 was written in consultation with the oil industry – the very group it’s meant to regulate, and has no support from environmental and health groups.

However, 20% of Californians are left out of these decisions because they speak little or no English. Your action today in support of AB 543 (Campos) will help to correct this injustice.
