URGENT: We have 3 days to flood the Capitol phone lines - let's make some noise!

Hi, Supporters! We have 1,043 signatures on this petition!! Thank you again for signing, sharing this petition, and for your incredible support!

We need each of you to call the Committee Chair Senator Sabrina Cervantes this Monday morning, August 10, between 9:00 AM and 11:30 AM PST to stop AB 1703

While our growing signature count shows unwavering community strength, the hard reality of California politics is that petitions don't scare politicians. To stop this bill, we must change tactics immediately.

A massive wave of simultaneous phone calls physically disrupts the Capitol, ties up office lines, and forces politicians to realize that passing AB 1703 carries heavy political risk. Our goal is to pressure the committee to leave this bill in the “suspense file” so it dies quietly on August 13.

To maximize our impact, we need everyone to call during this exact time frame:

Date: Monday, August 10, 2026 AND Time: 9:00 AM – 11:30 AM PST

Call both of these numbers back-to-back. If the line is busy, keep redialing, please!

Committee Chair Sen. Sabrina Cervantes: (916) 651-4031 AND Main Appropriations Committee Line: (916) 651-4101

Please read this exact script, which aligns with the committee’s focus on state budget and fiscal waste:

Hi, my name is __________. I am a California resident from [Your City] calling to register my strong opposition to AB 1703, which is currently in the suspense file. This bill incentivizes the Osteopathic Medical Board of California to waste state enforcement revenue targeting safe, traditionally trained manual osteopaths and bodywork practitioners, creating costly administrative waste. I urge the committee to hold AB 1703 in suspense. Thank you.
