San Benito Rising
At the March 15, 2014, “Don’t Frack CA” rally in Sacramento.
San Benito Rising is a grassroots group of volunteers. We are working to make San Benito County the first “frontline” county in California to ban fracking & extreme extraction in California. We have some oil and gas drilling in our county, but we’re working hard to stop it from expanding into the rest of the county.
Our ballot initiative is scheduled for the November 2014 election, so we’re gearing up for a big campaign against the fossil fuel industry. We’re optimistic about winning because we’ve been canvassing already and have gotten very encouraging support from the vast majority of residents in our county.
Join us in this fight to protect our water, health and way of life!
