SB 1253–Veto Letter to Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger
SB 1253 is a deeply flawed bill and we are urging everyone to call, write, or fax Governor Schwarzenegger urging him to veto SB 1253! SB 1253 would allow convicted sex offenders who reside in the same household as their victim to potentially continue their abuse of the child or children. The bill severely endangers victims of child sexual abuse.

AB 939–Opposition Letter to Judiciary Committees
AB 939 would remove litigants’ rights to stipulate to case management or to the assignment of court appointees – creating a dangerous precedent because such appointees lack adequate oversight, a problem that is currently being investigated by the State Auditor. This bill is an affront to due process rights and would place additional restrictions on litigants by codifying this infringement.
