For over 45 years, we\u2019ve worked to protect our environment and fight climate change, address<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

food insecurity, and help students vote. We believe students have the power to shape the future, and we organize on UC campuses and statewide to win real, concrete victories.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Just last week, we won the American Climate Leadership award for our work in getting our UC\u2019s to commit to 100% clean electricity by 2025! The reason why we are so effective on these issues is because we represent thousands of students here at UCLA and tens of thousands of students across the UC system who have pledged CALPIRG.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We are the largest and most diverse generation alive and we have the power to elect the next generation of leaders who will fight for our vision for the future. This Spring, we are working to turn out the youth vote in the 2020 elections by asking students to pledge to vote, working with administration, and building a huge coalition of groups on campus committed to turning out the vote.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

We\u2019re also continuing our work to protect our oceans from single-use plastics and to make textbooks more affordable for students, as well as working to ensure students basic needs are being met in light of COVID19 and calling on the federal government to expand medical resources.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

There\u2019s still so much we can do to make a positive difference, work with a fun team, and<\/b><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
