State-wide Call-in to Call-out Gov. Brown

April 25, 2016 @ 8:00 am - 5:00 pm

Please call Governor Jerry Brown, Oakland’s former mayor, on Monday, April 25th, to join our daylong Call-in to Call-out Governor Brown!

Last July at the Vatican, Governor Jerry Brown said to the Pope that 90% of coal must stay in the ground to avoid climate disaster.

But what is our professed climate leader doing to stop coal trains from coming through his hometown?

Nothing!

Let Brown know that lofty proclamations are not enough.

PLEASE JOIN US IN A STATE-WIDE CALL-IN to CALL OUT BROWN

Monday, April 25 between 8 am and 5 pm

Call: 916-445-2841

Fax: 916-558-3160

Twitter: @JerryBrownGov

Email: https://govnews.ca.gov/gov39mail/mail.php

Let Gov. Brown know that he can no longer remain silent.

Remind Gov. Brown that, in the words of Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., “The hottest places in Hell are reserved for those who remain neutral in times of great moral conflict.”

We are calling on Brown to:

  1. Publicly oppose the export of coal from the new bulk terminal being built in West Oakland. We are asking Gov. Brown to defend his fellow Oaklanders who already suffer the health consequences from the worst air quality in all of Alameda County.
  2.  Affirm his support for Senator Loni Hancock’s two bills about coal and use the power of his office to promote and pass them.
