To all California advocates/techs/parents -
I wanted to pass along a request I received from my local PD/CPST-I (originated from the SK Coordinator in Sacramento), asking for letters of support for SB 929 to be sent to Governor Jerry Brown, letting him know that we need to have stronger Child Passenger Safety Laws than we currently do. I have attached the SB 929 Fact Sheet and Sample Support letter that was sent to me. If you have a few minutes please send in a letter.
Thanks!

Hello all,
Hello Child Passenger Safety Advocates, (sorry if you get this twice)
Senate Bill 929 (Evans) which will increase the booster seat requirement to age 8, is headed to the Senate floor and must be passed by 9/9/11, but could be passed as early as next week. Then it is off to the Governor.
We need your help with the Governor. We do not have a solid read on his position. Also, being a ‘man of the people’ he WANTS to hear from the people. This is where you come in.
Ø Could you as a citizen, child passenger safety technician, parent or grandparent write a letter of support?
Ø Is there any way your agency, on letterhead of course, could write a letter?
Letters need to be addressed to:
The Honorable Jerry Brown
State Capitol
Attn: Brian Putler, Deputy Legislative Secretary
Sacramento CA 95814
Make sure you put Support: SB 929 (Evans) Child Passenger Safety in bold.
The fax number to the Legislative Affairs office in the office of Governor Brown is (916)558-3177 (FAX) and the phone number is (916)445-4341 (PHONE). His e-mail is: Brian_Putler@ftb.ca.gov
We are not sure if the email will get to him so please fax or send by snail mail or both if possible.
A sample letter is attached.
