Update on SB 201,
The Fresh Raw Milk Act of 2008
Dear Members,
As a follow-up to our Action Alert of last week, please keep making
phone calls and emails to the California Assembly Health Committee Members.
Monday June 23 is the day to make those calls - the committee meets
and votes on Tuesday June 24. Just SEVENTEEN QUICK PHONE CALLS FOR RAW
MILK could make all the difference for raw milk throughout the country.
Phone numbers are listed below.
We have also grouped all the emails together so that you can contact
every member with just one email.
Your message is simple: "Please vote for SB 201 on June 24 so
that citizens of
California can have access to clean, safe raw milk. Then say in one
or two sentences how raw milk has helped you."
Be sure to watch the excellent nine-minute video on SB 201 on UTube:

Here's a wonderful letter from a raw milk supporter: "I've been
helping our farmers
in Missouri by writing letters and making phone calls about raw milk
and just wanted to let you know that I just made my 17 phone calls to
the assembly members. Many said they were getting LOTS of calls. Only
one requested my name (although I offered it to about the first 5-6).
Most asked what city, but if they didn't, I let them know that I was
calling from Kansas City, Missouri and that people from all over the
country were behind you guys in support of our right to consume raw
milk. Many said they knew that and they were getting a lot of calls
supporting the bill from other parts of the country. Many were sort
of in disbelief that I was calling from so far away. One even volunteered
that he was a big supporter of the raw milk bill (Huff) saying that
he grew up drinking raw milk. Thanks for fighting this battle on the
behalf of raw milk advocates all over the country. You're setting the
precedent that will make it easier for all of us!
SEVENTEEN PHONE CALLS
Take 15 minutes now to help save CA raw milk forever! Phone calls are
given "points" which are used by committee members to form
opinions. IT'S EASY - JUST DIAL. A FRIENDLY AIDE WILL ANSWER.
1) Say your Name and City
2) Request that Assembly Member [Last Name] SUPPORT SB 201 at the Health
Committee Hearing, June 24.
Please pick up the phone and call these 17 Assembly Health Committee
