On June 9, the Santa Cruz City Council and County Board of Supervisors will consider updates to local ordinances that protect our coast from offshore oil drilling and emerging threats like deep-sea mining. These protections are part of California's historic "Blue Wall" - local policies that prevent the onshore infrastructure needed to support offshore extraction industries.

We need your voice to help show strong community support. Here are three ways you can support:
