Shout out to everyone helping to get all the social, environmental, and climate justice bills passed this year!! California Governor #AB1857 #AB2550 #SB1137 #AB1608 #AB937 #AB2183

Current building code gives us buildings that won’t kill us but will be unusable. Proud to be testifying in support of AB1857 which will create codes to make buildings repairable. It gives us what many people think they are already getting. Thanks @Asm_Nazarian!

Hooray! #AB1857 is headed to the Assembly Floor for a vote! Thank you Cristina Garcia for protecting vulnerable communities.

#AB1857 is now law! Thank you Cristina Garcia for championing #AB1857 . 'California Governor's signature of #AB1857 reinforces the power and determination of frontline communities to bring forward the right policy solutions for our state.”-Whitney Amaya, EYCEJ Zero Waste Community Organizer

#AB1857 by Cristina Garcia passed the Legislature and is on its way to Gavin Newsom! 'Our lungs have always known that burning trash isn't recycling and we're grateful that the Legislature agrees with us.' -Whitney Amaya, Zero Waste Community Organizer at EYCEJ

#AB1857 has passed the legislature and is now on its way to the Governor's desk for signing. Thank you to everyone that has supported the fight to close down incinerators in our communities. Graphic by Californians Against Waste. #WeAreJustTryingToBreathe #StopBurningTrash

Another of my bills #AB1857 passed the Assembly today! Very important we stop pretending that burning trash is recycling. It pollutes the environment and harms public health by converting waste into harmful air emissions and toxic ash. #StopBurningTrashCA

I introduced #AB1857 today to move CA closer to a #ZeroWaste future by eliminating the credit that incentivizes sending waste to toxic incinerators in #EnvironmentalJustice communities. #StopBurningTrashCA

We join with Earthjustice and EYCEJ in supporting #AB1857 introduced by Cristina Garcia to close down dangerous waste incinerators in California including Long Beach! We need real #zerowaste solutions

Huge win! Gavin Newsom signed #AB1857 by Cristina Garcia, which protects frontline communities by stopping incineration from counting as recycling and funding local investments in zero-waste programs!

Today, we’re supporting our clients and partners testifying at the CA State Assembly Housing Committee on AB1857.

Tell Your Reps: Yes on AB1857. Incineration is NOT recycling, it’s adding more pollution! action.storyofstuff.org/letter/yes-on-…

Let Jerry Brown know that CA needs more than just being able to survive a quake. We need buildings to be usable after a major earthquake. Right now: ask him to support & sign #AB1857 to start down that path: govapps.gov.ca.gov/gov39mail/inde…

Thank you, #LAFD Talk This bill AB1857 will make your job easier after the next quake and mean that many more of us will have homes and jobs to support recovery. twitter.com/LAFDtalk/statu…

Burning trash, including plastic, should not be counted as recycling. The practice of incinerating waste pollutes the environment and harms public health by converting waste into harmful air emissions and toxic ash. #caleg please pass #AB1857 by Cristina Garcia to #StopBurningTrashCA

#AB1857 would stop subsidizing the harmful practice of burning trash in #FrontlineCommunities . Ben Allen & Senator Lena Gonzalez we're counting on you to stand up for #EnvironmentalJustice and pass this important bill. #StopBurningTrashCA

Without 'diversion' subsidy, one of the state's two remaining #incinerators is shutting down! Great to see this long-sought victory for our partners at EYCEJ #AB1857

Thank you Gavin Newsom for signing #AB1857 so that burning trash — including plastic — doesn't count as recycling. An important step to protect the environment, communities, & public health. Thanks Cristina Garcia for your leadership & Valley Improvement Projects (VIP) EYCEJ Earthjustice Californians Against Waste

(1/2) California's incinerators inundate nearby #EnvironmentalJustice communities with harmful emissions and produce thousands of tons of toxic ash every year. #AB1857 will make meaningful investments in CA’s #ZeroWaste economy. #StopBurningTrashCA
