  • 2026 CA Governor’s Primary Race

    California is in DANGER of turning RED on June 2nd!   

    California’s OPEN Primary Voting System sends “only” the TOP 2 candidates, regardless of party, to the November General Election. 

    Polls show 2 MAGA/GOP candidates in the lead – Steve Hilton & Tom Bianco. 

    On the Democrat side there are six (6) leading contenders. Of those, Tom Steyer, Katie Porter, and Xavier Becerra rank in the 3rd, 4th & 5th position. 

    To avoid a Democrat Shutout and Safeguard Down Ballot Races in the General Election we must VOTE in the Primary Election.  Let’s keep California BLUE!

  • A time sensitive action item for the environment from Jim Hines

    Greetings Activists:

      HR 1897 is ground zero for destroying the federal endangered species act.

     My sources at the U.S. Dept of the Interior, specifically the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service who worked with congressman Westerman to write the bill tell me that a full U.S. House vote on HR 1897 will come on April 14,15 or 16. The legislative office at the U.S. Dept of the Interior is already lobbying House members in support of HR 1897 and will do a full court push starting on April 13th.      

     It is so important that as many people as we can get to contact as many members of the House (both republican and democrat) as we can and urge a NO vote on HR 1897. 

    Here is a list of current House members:

    No time to waste, folks needs to start calling, texting or emailing ASAP.

    for wildlife,

    Jim
