DESCRIPTION:Mark your calendars for an informative Zoom meeting Sunday May 31 from 
 1:30-3:00pm. Speakers will share details on the progress of public banking 
 both locally and in the state of California. Speakers include Santa Cruz 
 County 4th District Supervisor Zach Friend, explaining the unanimous vote 
 of the County Supervisors to pursue a viability study for a public bank 
 with neighboring government entities including San Benito, Monterey, San 
 Luis Obispo, and Santa Barbara Counties. \n\nOur featured speaker is 
 Trinity Tran, a prominent organizer of Public Bank Los Angeles and CPBA, 
 the California Public Banking Alliance. She will describe CPBA's successful 
 campaign for the statewide Public Banking Act (AB 857), which was signed 
 into law in October 2019. She will also explain the various benefits public 
 banks can provide in meeting the COVID-19 financial crisis.\n\nSanta Cruz 
 Mayor Justin Cummings will welcome participants from cities and counties 
 throughout the Central Coast area. Randa Solick and Reed Geisreiter will 
 provide a brief history of the work done by a Santa Cruz-based volunteer 
 citizen committee called People for Public Banking, joining other such 
 groups around the state to move public banking forward. Geisreiter, a 
 retired banker, will explain how a public bank could operate providing 
 reliable financial backing to local banks and credit unions. A Q&A session 
 will follow. \n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2020/05/22/18833176.php
