AB 2840 was assigned to the Senate Governance and Finance Committee and is now set for hearing on Wednesday, June 29.
CBPA is actively urging the Senate Governance and Finance Committee to review the bill over concerns that it upends local planning authority for cities and counties, as well as undermines the nation’s strictest environmental law, CEQA.
Our focus is still on the 5 Senators sitting on this committee, including the Chair, Senator Caballero, along with Neilson, Durazo, Wiener, and Hertzberg. If you have contacts with these legislators now is the time to reach out!
We are working around the clock with all our coalition members, including CalChamber, CBPA, NAIOP, CBIA and many more to kill this bill. We are now contacting Senate offices to clarify the negative impact this bill would have on their constituents locally and the state, even if they don’t reside in the affected counties and cities.
We are in a sprint to defeat this bill, as policy committee deadlines are coming up at the end of this month!
THANK YOU to all of you who have helped on this bill, and please stay tuned for more AB 2840 information in the coming weeks.
