Greetings from Sacramento!

Greetings from the Econo-lodge on 16th Street in Sacramento!

Today members of Action for IHSS came to Sacramento and spoke to legislative aids about preventing IHSS budget cuts. The politicos said your calls and emails are definitely making a difference. Over the next 24 hours, please make your phone calls and emails to the offices of:
Noreen Evans, (Dem) Chair, (916) 319-2007
Assemblymember Jim Nielson (Rep)(916) 319-2002
Assemblymember Roger Niello (Rep) (916) 319-2005
The last two are republicans who might be our swing votes.

We also sat in the Budget Conference Committee meeting and listened to legislators go through the agenda, voting item by item in hyperspeed. snip snip snip. There's no more discussion.

We also participated in the IHSS coalition conference call and suggested some guerilla theatre at the rally in San Francisco, Tuesday, June 23rd and possibly on Monday 6/22 in Sacramento. If you want to do do some political street theatre, contact us.

ACT4IHSS wants to hear from you. If you have any questions or comments or would like to get involved, please contact Hannah at hannahjo@LMi.net or Nick at daretodream94704@yahoo.com.
