Inland Action Positions on Important Issues:
- SUPPORT- Letter of Support for SB 952 – State Water Project: renewable energy resources and zero-carbon resources (10/19/2026) - SUPPORT- 8/30/26 - Inland Action supports SB 952 - State Water Project: renewable energy resources and zero-carbon resources. SB 952 (Lairs, 2026) would make modifications to the statute surrounding SB 1020 (Laird, 2022) that requires the SWP to be 100% powered by clean energy by 2035 including additional clarity as the Department of Water Resources is looking at which resources can be used to meet the 2035 goal, allows the Department of Water Resources to bank renewable energy certificates (RECs) when the allocation is low and apply those RECs in higher allocation years resulting in cost savings, and corrects an incorrect contracting date in statute.
- SUPPORT- Letter of Support for SB 872 – Delta Levees and Canal Subsidence Fund (10/19/2026) - SUPPORT- 8/30/26 - Inland Action supports SB 872 - Delta Levees and Canal Subsidence Fund. More than 27 million Californians and 750,000 acres of farmland depend on water that flows through the SWP conveyance facilities. Committing to a durable, long-term funding gameplan for water conveyance subsidence repairs and Delta levees will ensure the state is contributing to a shared and coordinated investment to avoid further degradation of the state’s primary water delivery systems and reducing hardship for communities and ecosystems that depend on it.
- OPPOSE- Letter of Opposition to SB 1414 (Reyes) – County of San Bernardino Citizens Redistricting Commission (10/19/2026) - OPPOSE- 6/22/26 - Inland Action opposes SB 1414 because is singles out just one county, San Bernardino County, for special treatment under state legislation. While we are aware that a few other counties have changed their redistricting processes via state bills, if the State Legislature believes that independent redistricting commissions are a good practice, then proposed state legislation should impose the process on all counties.
- SUPPORT- Letter of Support for Judicial Funding (10/19/2026) - SUPPORT- 6/4/26 - Inland Action supports funding judgeships for the Inland Empire including needs in both the San Bernardino Superior Court and Riverside Superior Court.
- OPPOSE- Letter of Opposition to SB 1359 (Stern) – Gas Transition Responsibility and Electrification Act (10/19/2026) - OPPOSE- 4/14/26 - Inland Action opposes SB 1358 (Stern). This bill puts safety and reliability at risk by restricting investment in gas infrastructure needed to maintain and modernize existing systems. SB 1359 would also harm businesses by enabling the retirement of gas infrastructure and the loss of service many employers depend on to operate. Restaurants, manufacturers, hospitals, and small businesses rely on natural gas for affordability, reliability, and resilience. Losing gas service would increase costs, limit operations, and threaten jobs, especially where electric alternatives are not practical or affordable.
- OPPOSE- Letter of Opposition to AB 1678 (10/19/2026) - OPPOSE- 4/14/26 - Inland Action opposes AB 1678 as this bill overrides locally adopted policy directions, undermine the authority of local elected officials to determine which transportation projects are advanced and funded in their communities, and raises broader concerns regarding accountability and the responsible stewardship of limited transportation resources.
