CFRW Supports AB 2159
The California Federation of Republican Women's Voting Body voted yesterday to SUPPORT AB 2159. AB 2159, authored by Assemblyman Anderson (R-77), gives veterans who were stationed in California, in-state tuition status for all California public colleges. This bill is going to be heard in the Assembly Appropriations Committee next Wednesday. Please call Assemblyman Anderson's office and let them know you are a CFRW member and you support AB 2159! The CFRW commends Assemblyman Anderson's commitment to veterans and we look forward to support this bill as it continues on its journey.
Happy Post-Tax Day!
I hope everyone celebrated their Tax Day by attending a local Tea Party! Here at the Capitol there were thousands of Tea Partiers raising their voices saying, “Taxed Enough Already!” I sure hope the Democrats in the Legislature heard the people on the Capitol lawn, because time is ticking away before they have to come up with a solution to fill the $19 billion dollar budget deficit. New taxes are not the answer! Be sure to keep track of your Capitol Update in May and June. The Budget Battle will be waging!
Tracking Legislation
Although we are unable to give our members access to our web-based bill tracking service, there is a way you can find and monitor California legislation. You can access that information on the internet by going to the Legislature Home Page and completing the information on the right side by either indicating the bill number, the author, or key words. You can then subscribe to an email update and you will be notified when there is action on legislation of interest to you
Disclaimer: The Capitol Update is an activity of the CFRW Advocate's Office. The update is for information only. CFRW official positions on legislation are stated immediately preceding the stated legislation or immediately following the stated legislation in this report.
