Sunday after 1 pm, the state Assembly will vote on the Worst Bill, SB 1120.
Tomorrow, after 10 am, the Senate is set to vote on AB 725, the Second-Worst Bill.
YOUR ASSIGNMENT: Ask Assembly members Mike Gipson and Reggie Jones-Sawyer to defend their working-class homeowners and home-buyer hopefuls by killing SB 1120. Their heavily Black and Latino households will be badly harmed by SB 1120.
If you live or have family in Gipson's district (Compton, Carson, Long Beach, Watts, Wilmington) or Jones-Sawyer's district (Florence, Huntington Park, Historic South Central, Vermont-Slauson) CALL NOW!
Gipson: (916) 319 2064 Jones-Sawyer (916) 319 2059.
KEEP CALLING. Spread the word to local folks you know!
For NorCal folks, time to get answers from Kansen Chu of San Jose! He's been evasive, he's running for a new office. CALL NOW! Kansen Chu (916) 319-2025.
Thank you Assemblymember Al Muratsuchi, the latest lawmaker to OPPOSE SB 1120!
Thank you Assemblymember Sydney Kamlager, who DESTROYS in this video, calling SB 1120 a direct attack on Black homeownership: https://www.youtube.com/watch?
Despite spin by its author, senate boss Toni Atkins, who is married to a developer, SB 1120 lets investors buy homes, destroy them and build 4 luxury homes with no yard or garage. On your street. In your hard-won community.
NOT modest duplexes. Four luxury rental homes squeezing out local homeownership.
This gold-plated gift is the PLAN from the Senate? During a recession and COVID-19? It's a disgrace.
IT'S VERY TIGHT TIMING EVERYONE!
The legal deadline to approve laws is Aug. 31. The Senate will hear AB 725, the cousin to SB 1120, after 10 am tomorrow, Saturday. The Assembly will hear SB 1120, the community-crushing bill, after 1 pm Sunday.
