Our Mission

The mission of the California Problem Solvers Foundation is to educate elected officials, legislative staff, and members of the public on policy issues and to encourage political leadership that puts the public good above partisan political ideology. 


Our goal is to create the infrastructure that will further leadership by “Problem Solvers” who are principled, pragmatic and committed to reaching across the aisle to address issues facing the California Legislature, and thus all Californians. 


The California Problem Solvers Foundation seeks to help develop leaders who find solutions reached through collaboration, not division, mutual respect, not partisan bickering, and that will work in service to the people they represent in districts across the State of California to move our state forward. It is time to put people over party.

Climate scientists agree that reducing methane emissions is the most important short-term effort to limit global warming. With the passage of SB 1383 (Lara) in 2016, California has taken appropriate steps to significantly reduce methane and other short-lived climate pollutants (SLCPs) in California, as part of the state’s comprehensive climate policies. Climate-smart agricultural practices, including dairy methane reduction, are part of the solution. We urge you to continue the incentive-based approach currently being successfully employed by the California Air Resources Board.
