“We should not, as a Jewish people, be investing our money in and perpetuating the fossil fuel industry when we know they are the bad guy. This is not who we are.” Our hearts are heavy this week in the face of so much. Our resolve to act is even stronger. https://t.co/YI7i5eAgrS

#AB1866 jumpstart the cleanup of 40,000 idle oil wells across California. #AB3233 empowers local governments to regulate, limit, and phase out oil and gas operations. Both bills are awaiting @gavinnewsom's signature — make sure he knows Californians want to #MakePollutersPay!
