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.
The last public update on the project was in a hearing in April of 2021. The California Legislature's Joint Rules Committee said it planned to provide an update this year, but that never happened before state lawmakers left Sacramento for the rest of the year in September.
Newsom decided to hop in the debate about the construction of a ballroom at the White House all while over a billion dollars of taxpayer funds are being spent on renovating the state capitol building.
The removal of the annex at the back of the capitol and replacing it with an expensive remodel will leave us with one of the most expensive buildings in the United States! The capital annex was built in the 1950s era and really didn’t need replacing.
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.
