California SB-1 Action Alert

Vote Solar Friends-

It’s the homestretch. California’s SB-1, the Million Solar Roofs Bill, is in its last stages. But as any marathon runner knows, sometimes the last few feet are the hardest. We need your help in getting America’s most ambitious solar legislation over the finish line.

The next two steps, more or less, are as follows:

1) The bill will be heard in the Assembly Appropriations Committee on Thursday, August 25, and voted on Friday, August 26.

2) The bill has to pass a floor vote of the Assembly before September 9, the last day of session.

The key to SB-1’s future is very much in the hands of Fabian Nunez (D-LA), the Speaker of the Assembly. However, at this stage in the game the Speaker is focused on macro issues, and SB-1 is at risk of becoming a casualty in the battle with the Governor and unions. Speaker Nunez needs to hear that solar is important to Californians, and that we are counting on him to get the job done, and done right.
