AB 2103
Help Rebuild State Parks
Our fire-damaged parks and habitats in the Santa Cruz mountains, need our help to recover from one of the biggest fires in California's recorded history. Thanks to you and your fellow supporters reaching out to California's leadership, Assembly Bill 2103 passed the State Assembly, Senate, and was nearly signed into law. Unfortunately, AB2103 was vetoed on 9/22/24. Like you, Assemblymember Gail Pellerin of the 28th Assembly District, who introduced the bill, championed it every step of the way. Together, we will continue protecting the crucial natural resources we all rely on in this critical moment.
Will you please join us in thanking Assemblymember Pellerin for her dedication and co mmitment to rebuilding our parks and protecting our recovering unique biodiverse habitats?
