NEW: California now has nearly 17,000 megawatts of battery storage – reaching one-third of the way to our 2045 goal.
We're deploying more battery storage than any state in America, building a stronger grid, cutting pollution, and securing a safer future for our nation.

The administration is now APPEALING the court decision requiring it to provide full food assistance to Americans.
There’s no other way to put it: They are doing everything they can to take food away from Americans in need. Shameful.

Food insecurity is ALWAYS a political choice. Famine is ALWAYS manmade. People go hungry because of other people’s decisions. We have more than enough food for everyone, and enormous amounts of it are wasted—literally thrown in the garbage—on purpose.
