[CRNMC] FW: [unfrack-california] Requesting assistance with campaign to ban fracking in San Benito County

[Shannon Biggs]

Thought you might like to see this notice that went out on the fracking
lists this week from San Benito Rising.
Are we doing any precinct walking? Just curious. Happy to help with that and
anything else and of course to send our own messaging out to the frack list
statewide. 

Best., Shannon
