31 mai 2017 — Californians: Ask assembly members to support salon worker health! AB 1575 authored by Assemblymember Ash Kalra (27th Assm. District-San Jose) calls for ingredient labeling on the products used by salon professionals while on-the-job. Unlike cosmetic products you buy in a drug or department store for personal use, professional cosmetic products are not legally required to have ingredients on the label. Because of this, salon workers are left in the dark- unknowingly exposed to dangerous chemicals that are linked to breathing difficulties, higher rates of miscarriages, birth defects, and cancer. Salon professionals deserve to know what chemicals they are exposed to on a daily basis. The California Healthy Nail Salon Collaborative has teamed up with Black Women for Wellness, Californians for a Healthy and Green Economy (CHANGE coalition) and Women’s Voices for the Earth to sponsor California Assembly Bill 1575. The bill has passed out of two policy committees hearings and is now headed to the Assembly floor for a vote. If it passes an assembly floor vote, it will go to the California Senate. If passed by the CA Senate and signed by the Governor, it will become law. We and salon professionals like manicurists and hair stylists need your help to make sure this important right-to-know and women workers’ health bill passes the Assembly by Friday June 2. Please call at least 2 assembly members from the following list now and ask her/him to vote “yes” for AB 1575. If you are a constituent of any of the members below, please call that office as well. Calling at least 2 of the offices above only takes a minute. Feel free to speak from the heart, or use the script provided here: “Hello, I’m calling to ask Assemblymember _____________ _____ to vote “yes” for AB 1575, which requires all ingredients in professional salon products to be listed on the label. Unlike everyday cosmetics which are required to have ingredients printed on the label, professional cosmetics do not have the same legal requirement. Because of this, salon workers are unknowingly exposed to dangerous chemicals that are linked to breathing difficulties, higher rates of miscarriages, birth defects, and cancer. Salon professionals deserve to know what they are being exposed to in the products they use at work so they can decide how to protect their and their customers’ health. Thank you for your support.” Assemblymember Arambula, Fresno - (916) 319-2031 Assemblymember Berman, Los Altos - (916) 319-2024 Assemblymember Caballero, Salinas, Watsonville - (916) 319-2030 Assemblymember Chu -Milpitas, (916) 319-2025 Assemblymember Cooper Elk Groove, ( 916) 319-2009 Assemblymember Dababneh Van Nuys, (916) 319-2045 Assemblymember Gloria - San Diego (916) 319-2078 Assemblymember Low- Los Gatos/Saratoga (916) 319-2028 Assemblymember Rendon, Southgate (Los Angeles County) (916) 319-2063 Assemblymember Blanca Rubio - West Covina (916) 319-2148 It's also important to get the word out on Social Media.
