Yesterday, Sep 23rd at 4 pm, AB 268 (the Diwali Bill) was placed on the Governor’s desk. In order for the bill to become a law Gov. Gavin Newsom must sign it before Oct. 12. Stay Tuned……. Keep sending your emails in support of this bill to his office: leg.unit@gov.ca.gov Suggested verbiage (short and to the point) to the governor: Dear Governor Newsom: California has one of the largest population of Indian Americans in the United States. Let’s make history and pass AB 268 to designate Diwali as a state holiday. We thank you for your support of the Indian American community! (Your name)
