Take Action TODAY on SB 1
Ag Council is asking for your help TODAY to oppose SB 1 (Atkins), unless it is amended. Click the “Learn More” link below to easily send an email to your Assembly representative.
SB 1 locks-in the last date of former President Barack Obama’s administration as the baseline standard for specified federal environmental and labor policies. As a result, the measure mandates that California adhere to certain federal laws and regulations in place prior to President Donald Trump taking office.
Recent SB 1 amendments do not address the significant Endangered Species Act policy issues in the bill raised by a coalition of business, water and agricultural associations, including Ag Council. Further, the amendments create additional and substantial concerns with SB 1 by upending a recent regulatory decision at the State Water Resources Control Board to provide farmers more certainty.
ACTION NEEDED NOW
Ag Council urgently requests your help before SB 1 is considered on the Assembly floor. Please weigh-in with your elected member of the Assembly to oppose SB 1, unless the bill is amended to address our concerns.
