California lawmakers are bulldozing ahead with a costly demolition of the East Annex and a plan to block public access to the West Steps and destroy Capitol Park.

Now is not the time to burden taxpayers with a $1.4 billion debt for the next 30 years. It’s time to increase public safety and save the historic West Steps.
As California's governor becomes more well-known across the country, a secretive State Capitol construction project is raising questions that go far beyond Sacramento.
For years, Californians have been told that a new office building behind the State Capitol is necessary, overdue, and responsibly managed. However, the actual cost remains undisclosed.
During the interview, Pacheco and Laird were also pressed about spending decisions that were made without public discussion, including costs tied to security infrastructure and high-end materials such as Italian stonework.
Save Our Capitol! is working to preserve the historic Capitol and its surrounding Park, including hundreds of irreplaceable trees. Alternatives exist to make the new Annex safe and compatible without spending more than $1.2 billion to excavate the West Steps, build a new parking garage, and rebuild the Annex with an all-glass facade.
