Senate Bill 375 is the most important global warming bill of the current legislative session. Unfortunately, Assembly Speaker Fabian Núñez has held SB 375 in the Appropriations Committee, meaning it will not come up for a vote on the Assembly floor until next year without further action. SB 375 needs your help now to ensure that the entire Assembly has a chance to vote on it.SB 375 (Steinberg) creates strong incentives for local governments to plan and approve housing and transportation projects that conserve farmlands and habitat and reduce the time people need to spend in their cars. The incentives created by SB 375 are needed to reach the goals set in AB 32, last year’s Global Warming Solutions Act, which requires the state to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to 1990 levels by the year 2020. Read Sunday’s Sacramento Bee editorial in support of SB 375.

Take action now:
Please contact Assembly Speaker Fabian Núñez today and urge him to allow SB 375 to come to a vote on the Assembly floor.
