[Sustain] Urgent: Act Tonight! Contact Senators Leno & Yee To Stop Bayview Toxic Trade

[Eric Brooks]

Hi all,

Tomorrow, Tuesday, May 26th, our State Senator Mark Leno is introducing 
a bill (SB 792) in the Senate Appropriations Committee which will trade 
crucial State Park and Public Trust lands in the Bayview Hunters Point 
for inferior and toxically polluted lands in the same district; all in 
order to pave the way for market rate condo and strip mall projects that 
will likely be built by the environmentally criminal Lennar Corporation.

Please contact Appropriations Committee members Mark Leno and Leland Yee 
tonight to indicate your and your group's opposition to this toxic 
giveaway. Then forward this email to anyone you know who might take action.
See the attached sample letter written by POWER to Senator Yee, for 
ideas on how to word your letter. Also contact Greenaction's Marie 
Harrison at marie at greenaction.org to let her know that she can represent 
your group tomorrow when she meets with Senators in Sacramento to oppose 
SB 792.

(Note: I am sending Rich's letter from the SF Green Party tonight to 
both offices.)

Here is rapid alert contact information for the two senators:

*Senator Mark Leno:*
*Fax: * *(916) 445-4722*
*Email: senator.leno at senate.ca.gov
**Phone: ** (916) 651-4003*

Senator Leland Yee:

peace

Eric Brooks
