Water, Energy, & Environment Task Force (Zoom Only)
Join the East Bay Leadership Council for an insightful conversation with the Chief Consultant for the Assembly Water, Parks, and Wildlife Committee. This is a unique opportunity to learn about relevant Senate and Assembly bills in the water, energy, and environment space as well as the $10 billion climate bond (Proposition 4) that will be on the ballot this November. The Task Force will also be evaluating whether to recommend a formal position on the climate bond measure to the EBLC Board of Directors.
Don't miss this opportunity to learn more about policy at the state level and shape how EBLC engages on these essential issues for economic growth and environmental protection.
