We deserve competent, effective and transparent leadership. 2024 is time for a change.

What does $1.2 million buy you in Chico?

What the mailers tell you about the people forand against Valley’s Edge

How many more will die on our streets before the city does the right thing?

6 days before Christmas, as the rain poured down, the City of Chico issued a Cease and Desist letter to Safe Space Winter Shelter regarding their use of the old 7-11 downtown for intake.

Chico PD Sued Again, Mark Bass, who has killed two citizens in the line of duty, party to yet another excessive use of force lawsuit … and still on the job.

Food insecurity affects up to 1 in 4 people in the North State. 1 in 4 children in the community report going hungry, and nearly 50% of Chico State Students also report struggling to purchase food. Many working families find themselves running low on food between paychecks as well. The community fridge creates a very simple way for people to help their neighbors, and for those in need to get food when they need it.

This is the second location of the much-beloved community fridge. The last one was removed after neighbors, led by Tim Lynch, petitioned the city to have it removed. (You may be familiar with Lynch from his hyperbolic rants to the Chico ER, like suggesting that voting for progressive council members was a step towards a “thousand years of darkness.” ) 🙄

We’re calling it now - The City Council Majority is going to move forward with a district map that splits up communities to give extremist right wing incumbents an unfair advantage.

CALL TO ACTION: Email City Council asap or show up to speak this Tuesday evening! Voice your support for good district maps that keep communities whole, and speak out against gerrymandered maps.
