Petaluma and Morgan Hill are being sued by the US govt on the basis of local ordinances banning gas in new builds.
Some may remember Petaluma was the first city in the nation to also ban the building of new gas stations. https://www.reuters.com/legal/government/us-sues-two-california-cities-over-limits-gas-new-buildings-2026-01-06/

A few photos from @petalumapride.org 2025! A couple team photos, from day of and day after, a group selfie from the merch tent, and one aerial photo.
Bigger than our last festival by every metric: bigger team, more attendees (at least 1500 throughout the day), more participating organizations, more activities, more entertainment, more fun!
HUGE thanks to all of my friends who donated and helped make it possible 💖

Grateful for the ever growing North Bay Rapid Response Network's work to document immigration action and support our neighbors. Finally got my training as a legal observer today!
There's probably a network like it where you live. Check them out and get plugged in!

Here at the #PeoplesMarch in #Petaluma #California on a cold day, but my heart is warmed by all the positivity here.
We stand against #fascism #oligarchy #hatred #bigotry #patriachy #war #genocide
We stand for #solidarity #HumanRights #intersectionality #peace #palestine
There is so much more, but we need to show up and stand against the few that are driving us apart and blaming us for atrocities that they are doing.
