Can you take one minute to sign this letter asking the State of California to invest in employee ownership?

Please sign the letter by Thursday, March 30th!

Last year, Governor Newsom signed into law Senate Bill 1407, the California Employee Ownership Act, which creates the Employee Ownership Hub within the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz). The Hub is designed to establish the infrastructure necessary to increase employee ownership throughout California. We are asking the State of California to invest $5 million to fund the newly-created Hub.

Employee ownership is a well-proven strategy for business resilience, wealth-building and job quality for workers, and strong local economies. With a potential budget shortfall looming, there is no better time for California to invest in worker ownership to preserve small businesses, protect jobs, and save the State money.

Please take a moment by Thursday, March 30th to sign this letter asking the State of California to invest in worker ownership to the benefit of workers, small businesses, and local economies!
