Deadline: now and ongoing – Who’s profiting from your banking? Probably not you or your community. Now, CA Assembly Bill 857 would allow local governments to establish their own public banks – banks managed by professional bankers, owned by a governmental entity, and accountable to the public.

The Santa Cruz public Banking website is here.  We are an active group seeking support from many local organizations.
