Tell your Assembly Member to vote YES on SB 100 - the California Renewable Portfolio Standard Program. The climate crisis is endangering all aspects of our daily lives. We must act now to move away from fossil fuels and preserve a healthy and sustainable environment for ourselves and future generations. Fossil fuels account for 75 to 80 percent of greenhouse gas emissions--but you can help change that.

This week the U.S. House will vote on immigration legislation that is not in our national interest.

The swift action of League supporters like you helped put the California Disclose Act on the governor’s desk. Now we need your help one more time to expose the big money funding campaign ads. Tell Governor Brown to sign AB 249 today, because transparency matters: http://bit.ly/SignAB249

Community colleges are a crucial gateway to higher paying jobs, but too many California students face an unnecessary roadblock to academic and career success. Currently, standardized tests assess 75 percent of community college students as “unprepared”—making them less likely to finish their education. But new research shows that these students are more prepared than the tests indicate. By being forced to take unnecessary remedial non-credit courses, community college students waste time and money.
