Let’s make polluters pay. Come hear the playbook on how a diverse coalition in Richmond, California built on decades of community organizing to secure an unprecedented $550 million settlement from Chevron—without even going to the ballot. There are 132 operating US refineries (as of Jan 2024), that have been profiting, extracting from, and polluting our communities for decades. Join our webinar to gain insights and strategies on how to challenge and win against the opposition, including:

• campaign strategies to build the coalition, powermap the field, and work with city council
• decision-making on what type of tax measure to run
• communications strategies such as polling and message testing
• using evidence-based polling and message-testing to build the campaign
