Student-Written Resolution Passed By California Senate
SCR 53–the state-level Climate Emergency Resolution co-drafted by Talulah Juniper ‘23, Izzy Weaver ‘23, and State Senator Mike McGuire–as a project for Nancy Metzger-Carter’s Civic Engagement class last year–was approved this Wednesday in a 30-4 vote in the California State Senate! SCR 53 now moves on to the California State Assembly as a joint resolution. There is optimism that the resolution will pass there as well; Izzy and Talulah have already discussed support for it with State Assemblymember Jim Wood (D, CA-2). Following passage in the Assembly, it would move on to Governor Newsom’s office.
You can read more about the process of researching and writing the resolution and its path to the capitol here. Congratulations to Talulah and Izzy on this huge accomplishment!
