New billboards send a concrete message to Vallejo city leaders: approve the cement plant near the mouth of the Napa River and get voted out of office.
Vallejo resident Kat Cook and neighbors raised more than $5,000 through Gofundme to pay for the billboards.
“We will vote you out,” Cook said. “This is freedom of speech. It’s the power of citizenship.”
They target four specific councilmembers, two of them up are for re-election this November.
Cook calls them the Orcem Four, saying those councilmembers have so far voted in support to move the project along.
Peter Brooks, president of Fresh Air Vallejo said, “We want to kick Orcem out of City Hall.”
NOTE: ILWU Local 10 also opposes the Orcem proposal.
