The coalition

Separate towns. One line. One fight.

The Golden Pacific Powerlink does not stop at a city limit, and neither should the opposition to it. We Save California exists to put every community along the route on the same record.

More organizations joining soon

Conversations are underway with groups up and down the route. We list an organization on this page only after it has agreed to join — never on the strength of a shared position alone.

Bring your organization in

If your group is fighting the Powerlink — a community association, a conservation organization, a planning group, a business alliance — there is room on this page for you. Joining costs nothing and commits you to nothing beyond your own position.
