If you live in California, take 5 minutes out of your day to leave a message with the Governor's Office. Tell @gavinnewsom.bsky.social that California needs to fight homelessness, stop our state's population decline and arrest climate change caused by super-commuters. All he has to do is sign SB 79.
Please call the Governor and ask him to sign SB 79!
