JustJulie--Stellar job. Completed almost all requests as directed in relatively easy to follow non contradictory directions.
It was a bit of work. Anything worth doing requires a little effort on our part.
5 STARS--5/5 RATING to Julie.

Could not send to legislators as a whole (you would think this could be done) but was able to migrate to my representative and push the CASAA objective via email. Hopefully my legislator will be having lunch with one of the committee members and relay our concerns.

Working on calling legislators in my local toll free area code thanks to the info supplied by NorCal SFATA. Will be interesting to see if I can talk with any of them. Maybe try to leave a message.

Every little bit of CASAA information directed at our legislator(s) helps our cause regardless whether one thinks it might help or not.

I urge everyone to donate as much time/money you can spare to forward the CASAA point of view regarding an attack on vaping. Five minutes of you time promoting CASAA objectives is better than no effort/response.

Thanks for your kind words, BrotherBob. Kudos go to Alex Clark, our legislative director, who is simply awesome.

The decision to pair advocates with their legislators is a deliberate one. Frankly, legislators aren't terribly interested in what out-of-district folks have to say, although they tend to listen with a great deal more interest to the views of those people who actually elect them.
