The Sierra Club urges you to VOTE NO on the ballot initiatives to recall Santa Cruz City Councilmembers Drew Glover and Chris Krohn in the March 3, 2020 election.
Councilmembers Glover and Krohn originally earned the Sierra Club’s endorsement through a rigorous vetting process. As elected officials, both have energetically followed through on their commitment to the environment.
Both councilmembers are important to the council majority that protects our local environment. They have taken the lead in providing free bus passes to downtown employees; supporting our City’s urban tree canopy; protecting the site of the downtown Farmer's Market from development into a $40 million parking structure; managing UCSC growth in the context of finite natural resources; renovating our downtown library at the civic center; requiring that a minimum 20% of new housing be kept affordable to local workers; and protecting our greenbelt from overuse and degradation.

Councilmembers Glover and Krohn have supported Sierra Club priorities, and now we need to support their voices on the Council.
We hope you will join with the Sierra Club in voting AGAINST the recalls of Drew Glover and Chris Krohn. For more information on how to help, please visit stopsantacruzrecalls.org.
