ADVOCATES DEMAND LAWMAKERS VOTE ON TWO BILLS TO TAX MEGA-MILLIONAIRES & BILLIONAIRES BEFORE LEGISLATURE ADJOURNS
Thirteen organizations representing frontline workers, teachers, seniors, environmentalists, and advocates for racial and social justice announced a Summer campaign – Commit to Equity – to demand the governor and state lawmakers tax the privileged to fund real systemic changes that lift up communities of color and vulnerable groups. The campaign also announced a “week of action,” with a series of events in Sacramento, San Francisco, Fresno, Los Angeles, and San Diego to demand leaders build a budget for justice, informed by weeks of protest against racism.
