The bill now moves the Assembly for concurrence with the Senate Amendments. The Assembly will hear the bill either tonight or tomorrow morning. Keep those calls and faxes coming to the 10 targeted Assemblymembers (at this point e-mail messages don't matter much, because they won't have a chance to read them before the vote). Keep up the good work! Jennifer P.S. The 24 Aye's are all Democrats except McPherson who voted aye. The 14 No's are all Republicans except Costa who voted no. Senator Morrow - R & Senator Peace - D were absent during the vote, but will have an opportunity to add on later in the day.
