Your Help is Needed Today! CUT PRISON SPENDING!

Dear friends,

The California Legislature is expected to vote TODAY – Thursday, August 20 – on a plan to protect public safety and cut prison spending (so they don't take those cuts out of education, poison control or other essential services).

THE VOTE IS CLOSE – I NEED YOUR HELP TODAY!  IT'S NOW OR NEVER!

Just make one call! Here’s how:

Step 1: Get your California legislators' phone numbers here: http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/yourleg.html

Step 2: Dial your state Assemblymember's and Senator's number...

Step 3: Tell the person who answers the phone 1) your name, 2) that you are a constituent, and 3) that you want them to VOTE "YES" TODAY TO MAKE SAFE CUTS TO PRISON SPENDING so we don’t have any more cuts to essential programs!

Step 4: Ask 5 (or more) friends to do the same!

Step 5: Let me know how your phone calls went!

If enough of us call we can make this happen. We have just one day to tell our representatives to DO THE RIGHT THING!!

MAKE SMART CUTS TO PRISONS, NOT EDUCATION, AND PROTECT PUBLIC SAFETY.

Thank you!!!

Best, Margaret
