Senator Boxer Shows Support for Green Jobs

Last week, California Senator Barbara Boxer paid a visit to Solar Richmond in the East Bay to show her support for green collar jobs and witness them in action.  Solar Richmond is an organization that trains low-income residents on solar installation, and their model has been a leading example in the national conversation on green jobs.  Ms. Boxer applauded the nonprofit for being ahead of the curve in moving their community towards a clean energy future.  To watch a clip about Senator Boxer’s visit to Richmond, click here.  To find out more about Solar Richmond, click here to read about a site visit and dialogue that RSF co-hosted with SR this past March , and look for the upcoming guest essay by Michele McGeoy, Executive Director of SR, in the soon-to-be published summer issue of the RSF quarterly.
