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.
California Republican Assemblyman Josh Hoover says some state lawmakers like him are getting little to no information on the Capitol Annex Project and how much it could cost taxpayers.

The Annex project has become a textbook example of how not to run a public taxpayer funded project. Californians deserve transparency. They are entitled to know how their money is being spent.
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.
