This document is an application for leave to file an amicus curiae brief in support of the plaintiffs in a case before the California Supreme Court. It was submitted by 31 environmental nonprofit organizations seeking to support the plaintiffs' position. The application provides background on the identity and interests of the amici curiae, which include large statewide environmental groups as well as local grassroots organizations representing tens of thousands of Californians concerned with issues like climate change, environmental protection, social justice, and land use planning. It argues the amici have an interest in the case because the lower court's decision protects the role of the California Environmental Quality Act in ensuring public participation and accountability in regional land use and transportation planning processes.
