About this Event
Join us at 12:30 pm on the West Steps of the State Capitol in Sacramento as we launch the CA State Public Bank (AB 2243) campaign with a press conference and coalition rally. Bill champions Assemblymembers Matt Haney and Ash Kalra will speak, along with six community leaders.
We will celebrate with performances by multicultural community song/dance groups, homemade shaved ice with organic fruit purées, and more!
California is facing budget pressure, a housing crisis, and major infrastructure needs, while billions in public dollars flow to Wall Street banks. AB 2243 starts the process to create a state public bank through a State Bank Commission and Plan.
A public bank would work with community lenders to lower borrowing costs and expand financing for housing, climate projects, infrastructure, and small businesses, keeping more public dollars working in California.
Come be part of the historic launch!
Endorsed by 90+ organizations statewide, including co-sponsors: California Public Banking Alliance, End Poverty in California (EPIC), The Greenlining Institute, Indivisible California: StateStrong, Sacramento Area Congregations Together (SacACT), 350 Sacramento, Friends of the Earth.
