Under CEQA, a court ruling invalidated the approval of the pesticide sulfoxaflor after finding regulators failed to properly assess environmental harm. The insecticide has been linked to honey bee die-offs and monarch butterfly impacts. #CEQAWorks

CEQA improves housing projects. In Contra Costa County, a housing project was approved without a stable water supply. After a CEQA challenge, the court ruled the project can only move forward if a reliable water source is identified. #CEQAWorks

In LA and Kern Counties, oil drilling permits near homes were approved using outdated reviews. After a CEQA challenge by the Center for Biological Diversity, the permits were rescinded. CEQA ensures projects are studied, impacts are disclosed, and harm is prevented before it happens. #CEQAWorks"

Communities, particularly those that have already borne the heaviest burden of industrial pollution, have a right to know what is being built near them and what it means for their families’ health. #SB954 restores that right. calmatters.org/environment/...

Real abundance means healthy communities, clean air, and safe water. That’s what CEQA helps protect by requiring agencies to study impacts, disclose them to the public, and reduce harm. We need an abundance of public health protections, not fewer safeguards.

Last year, legislators felt forced to vote for SB 131 as part of the state budget package. The law created sweeping exemptions from environmental review for advanced manufacturing projects, including many heavily polluting activities. Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi explains why SB 131 must be fixed.
