WHAT'S NEXT
We're meeting with Assemblywoman Laurie Davies next week to discuss moving toward a COUNTY ORDINANCE.
This isn't just a petition anymore. This is a movement. Cities are paying attention. Law enforcement is engaged. State legislators are listening.
By October, we could have a county ordinance draft.
By the end of the year, it could be law.
THANK YOU

We're just getting started.
