Hi all,

Reminder:

Tell Mayor Lee To Stop Blocking Clean Power In San Francisco At Monday 
March 31 Hearing

San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee has cynically blocked CleanPowerSF and 
released a revised Climate Action Strategy with CleanPowerSF 
unacceptably deleted from it!

On September 18, 2012, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors, by a 
supermajority vote, directed the San Francisco Public Utilities 
Commission (SFPUC) to launch the CleanPowerSF program. CleanPowerSF is 
planned to immediately give San Franciscans the choice of 100% clean 
electricity, and hire hundreds of workers to build community projects to 
deliver 50% of that clean electricity from local installations.

But outrageously, Mayor Lee (who has received campaign support from the 
fossil fuel utility Pacific Gas & Electric) has been using his leverage 
as mayor to prevent CleanPowerSF from launching. In his latest attempt 
to interfere with CleanPowerSF, Mayor Lee has just released a revised 
version of the city's Climate Action Strategy with all references to 
CleanPowerSF removed!

*WHAT YOU CAN DO*

Attend an important City Hall hearing tomorrow to support CleanPowerSF 
in person at public comment time.

San Francisco Supervisor John Avalos has called a Monday, March 31, 
1:30pm hearing to demand answers on why the mayor is both blocking the 
launch of CleanPowerSF and releasing a Climate Action Strategy with 
CleanPowerSF deleted from its text.

Here are the hearing details:

Land Use & Economic Development Committee
Room 263, SF City Hall, 1 Dr. Carleton B. Goodlett Place (at Grove & Van 
Ness)
Monday, March 31, 2014 - 1:30pm

**TALKING POINTS & E**MAIL ACTION:*

send an email to Mayor Lee and other decision makers to demand that they 
restore CleanPowerSF to its rightful place as the centerpiece of the 
Climate Action Strategy, and launch CleanPowerSF immediately!
