Dear friends, Thank you to all of you who have supported our efforts for a healthier nail salon industry with the Healthy Nail Salon Bill “AB 2125” authored by Assemblymember David Chiu. The bill has reached the Senate Appropriations Committee, chaired by Senator Ricardo Lara, and we’re hoping to keep the momentum going to keep advancing the bill forward. If you or you know constituents of Senator Lara’s District (Long Beach as well as Bell, Bell Gardens, Cudahy, Huntington Park, Lakewood, Lynwood, Maywood, Paramount, Signal Hill, South Gate, and Vernon) we were hoping you call his district or Capitol offices within the next week, before Thursday, August 4. At every stage at the legislative process we need to make sure the committee members and especially chairs understand the needs of our communities. If you’re not sure if you’re in his district or not you can find out by this link (http://findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov/) Suggested script: “Hello my name is ______________, I’m from ________________ (list the city or neighborhood you live in that’s in his District) and I urge Senator Lara to support AB 2125 as it reaches the Appropriations Committee. I support AB 2125 because improving the health in nail salons is a critical issue for our district. Thank you for your time.” Long Beach District Office: 562-256-7921 Capitol Office: 916-651-4033 Hearing from constituents can make a difference.
