Women are already out here welding, wiring, building, leading, and proving every day that apprenticeships are a critical pathway to high-wage careers.

Apprenticeships don’t just train workers — they change lives. 🛠️

While the federal government rolls back climate policies California’s leadership is more important than ever. Reauthorize Cap-and-Trade & appropriate Prop 4 funds NOW.
@buffywicks.bsky.social @bauerkahan.bsky.social @asmmiabonta.bsky.social @asmlizortega.bsky.social @jessearreguin.bsky.social

We urge you to reauthorize Cap-and-Trade and appropriate Prop 4 funds this year @buffywicks.bsky.social @bauerkahan.bsky.social @asmmiabonta.bsky.social @jessearreguin.bsky.social @asmlizortega.bsky.social

Invest in paid job training & wildfire prevention.

We're calling on you to TAKE ACTION NOW.

🚛💚 Rolling out the Green Machine!

Thanks to a grant from @cacoastal.bsky.social, our brand-new Chipper Truck + “The Intimidator” wood chipper are officially on the job. Together they break down branches + brush to support fire mitigation + land management. Making community safer 1 chip @ a time. 🌳

Healthy lands cut wildfire risk, improve air, and support communities. @asmmiabonta.bsky.social @asmlizortega.bsky.social + @CAgovernor, reauthorize the Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund (GGRF) and invest in nature-based solutions: act.calparks.org/a/ggrf2025

#ReauthorizeGGRF #ClimateAction

Too often, we talk about wildfires after the damage is done. Let’s flip that script.


AD-14 residents, join me Aug. 16 at El Cerrito City Hall for a free, family-friendly event with experts, local fire chiefs, resources, and kids’ activities. RSVP: asmdc.org/bz-wildfire
