Subject: Good news! UPDATE: May 31st SB 1785
Good news
everyone! We were informed yesterday that Senator Figueroa will be
working to keep the tissue bank licensing and human milk issue
alive. Although Senate Bill 1785 will not be taken any further, the
Senator will be gutting and amending another one of her bills to include the
language of the former SB 1785. This process can happen when a
legislator has another bill/issue that may not get passed, and decides to
replace the language with entirely different content.
There is a
tentative new bill number, however the language
will not be in print until next week. The bill is already in the
Assembly, so as soon as we have confirmed the change it will be time
to contact your Assemblymembers to ask
for their support - this will be particularly important now that the bill
will have a new number.
Please feel
free to contact us with any questions. We realize this is a somewhat
confusing process and will be in touch with more information soon!
Thanks as
always for your support,
-Andrea and
Jennifer
