The power of ‘the story of self’

A message from the California State Democratic Party

Tell Lawmakers How Budget Cuts Hurt Your Family

On June 24, lawmakers cast their first votes on a Democratic budget plan that would minimize the severe cuts proposed by the governor. Unfortunately, Republicans refused to support the compromise plan and again showed their willingness to drive the state of California off a cliff to protect Big Oil and Big Tobacco.

Budget votes will continue over the coming days and Republicans must hear that the cuts they support will hurt real Californians in real ways. Please take a minute right now to write, or submit a YouTube video telling legislators, how the budget cuts will directly hurt your family. Let’s make sure lawmakers hear that we want a balanced budget solution that includes new revenues.

Submit your story or video here. Thank you.
