A Just & Equitable California Starts with the State Budget

Our state must make budget and policy decisions that help communities thrive and prioritize the needs of Californians who have been denied the opportunity to share in our state’s wealth.

We work to make the state budget and policies easier to understand, so all Californians — including you — can advocate for a more inclusive state.
