August 31, 2021: Special General Election Assembly District 18
/Frontline communities have the solutions to address decades of environmental racism. Activating voters is just one action to move us closer to push our state to becoming more responsive to the needs of people by voting for candidates that align with our values, who will work towards progressive policies for clean air, clean soil, clean water and protecting the health of people.
A special election is being held to fill the vacancy resulting from the resignation of Assemblymember Rob Bonta. The runoff election, or General election, is between the top two vote getters from the June 29, 2021 Special Primary Election.
CBE Action endorsed Janani Ramachandran in the Primary Election on June 29 and we are thrilled to see her make it to the runoff. To learn more about Janani, volunteer, or make a contribution directly to her campaign visit her campaign website at: https://jananiforca.com/
