About the California Green New Deal Coalition:
“The California Green New Deal Coalition (CA GND) was formed in 2019 as a statewide power-building formation to fight for unprecedented climate investments that center racial and economic justice. This vision is not just a better package of climate policies, but a transition to a fundamentally new economy — one that is just, sustainable, and democratic. The industries upholding the status quo will continue to propose false solutions that fund this transition off the backs of working families and creating sacrifice zones in the process. We need solutions that are inclusive and authentically led by grassroots organizations and frontline communities and workers.
The coalition has grown to over 80 member organizations, led by grassroots and frontline communities through a Steering Committee of 13 member organizations. In 2023, the CA GND voted to prioritize a 3-5 year campaign focused on the intersection of climate and housing with a long-term vision for green social housing.
By becoming a coalition member, groups can join a statewide network of people, organizations, and communities fighting for climate justice. We work collectively to develop and advance our strategies through discussion and deliberation, coalition-wide votes, and working groups. Our green social housing campaign brings us into a new phase of campaign development, and we are eager to join forces with many more groups to build the diversity and power of our coalition.”
