Good News! AB 101 has made it through the Senate Appropriations Committee and out of Senate Suspense. In that process there were some minor amendments made to the bill that focuses the bill on a model curriculum and sets an end date for the Advisory committee. 

It will soon go for a vote before the whole Senate and then to the Governor's desk. Unfortunately, we are receiving word that this bill has lukewarm support by the Governor’s office and in fact he may veto the bill...Here are two things you can do right now:

1. Contact your CA Senator: CLICK HERE
2. Email Governor Brown:
