Couldnt make the hearing but want to help DEFEAT Georgia's Arizona copycat law?
Make 5 phone calls RIGHT NOW and let legislators know that WHAT HAPPENS IN ARIZONA MUST STOP IN ARIZONA!
These folks are our FRIENDS, so this call is about supporting them and bolstering them to NOT let the vote go down today without a fight! Our champions need as much attention as our opponents. Your call can be short and sweet:
Hi, my name is _____ and I am aware that HB 87 is up for a vote today in you committee. I am calling to thank you for your opposition to this bill thus far and I am asking that you please continue your vocal opposition to this unconstitutional and discriminatory bill at today's hearing. We worry that the Chair will aim to push for a quick vote, and hope that, instead, you can ask the necessary tough questions and raise concerns so that other Representatives, the public, and the media can see that this bill will not breeze through uncontested and that Georgia legislators do stand with the many people across the state who oppose this type of legislation. Please, this issue is worth fighting about. We thank you!
Yasmin Neal, D 404.656.0265
Roberta Abdul-Salaam D 404.656.0325
Stacey Abrams D 404.656.5058
Stephanie Stuckey Benfield D 404.656.7859
Nikki Randall D 404.656.0109
These 2 representatives are not committed to opposing the bill, so the call would be more of a general "we urge you to oppose this bill that will hurt Georgia's economy and embarrass us in the eyes of the world" message. See Azadeh's previous msg if you need precise talking points.
B.J. Pak, R 404.656.0254
Sharon Cooper, R 404.656.5069
CALL NOW!!! Let's get them going into the committee saying "wow, I just got 20 calls - I think we really need to fight this!"
