Our Senate Bill 1406 is pending engrossment and enrollment and will be delivered to the Governor as soon as he signs a budget. He must act on the bill by midnight Tuesday, September 30. Please compose and send a personal letter on your office letterhead to Governor Schwarzenegger urging him to sign SB 1406 into law as soon as possible.
- Attached are specific message points that describe what SB 1406 will do for you and others that have been effective in promoting SB 1406 in the Legislature and with the media.
