URGENT ACTION ALERT for CALIFORNIA FAMILIES

October 4, 2011 URGENT ACTION ALERT!

SB 946 IN DANGER OF VETO BY GOV. BROWN. TELL HIM CHILDREN WITH AUTISM DESERVE INSURANCE REFORM!

Dear California Autism Advocate:

We are hearing that the insurance industry is pressuring Governor Brown to VETO SB 946. A veto would allow insurance discrimination to continue against children with autism in California.

Governor Brown's office is saying they are not hearing from enough people in the autism community.

If you want this California, you must turn up the heat on Governor Brown - today!  You need to send an email to let him know you want him to sign autism insurance reform now.  Get everyone you know in California to help magnify your voice.

Here is How YOU Can Help:

1.) ASK GOVERNOR BROWN TO SIGN SB 946 and ATTEND THE WALK in SACRAMENTO!  We get you started here, but take a minute to personalize your message. 2.) SHARE THE NEWS.  Anyone you know who lives in California can help - they do not have to have a child with autism so post this to your Facebook: "URGENT ATTN CALIFORNIA FRIENDS!  I need your help to ensure that Gov. Brown DOES NOT veto the autism insurance reform bill, SB 946, by sending him an email now. He cannot allow insurance discrimination to continue against children with autism. Please go to the link below & take action. Share on your page & write DONE so I can thank you! We want CA to be #28!" LINK TO: www.autismvotes.org/BrownSignSB946. 3) LET GOVERNOR BROWN HEAR YOUR VOICE ON HIS FACEBOOK PAGE.  Visit Governor Brown's Facebook Page, LIKE his page, then write directly on it that you want him to sign SB 946 into law and end autism insurance discrimination in California. Ask him to attend the Walk in Sacramento on October 9th so we can thank him when he does!
