April-25-07, 1:30 PM

We're off to a great start!  Last Wednesday, the Senate Health Committee 
passed SB 840, The California Universal Healthcare Act and its companion 
finance bill SB 1014 by a 6 to 4 Vote.  Thank you for sending letters, 
making calls to your legislators and all your support.  It made a 
difference!

SB 840 and SB 1014 are the first healthcare reforms this year to pass a 
committee hearing in the Legislature.  We are well on our way to moving 
the bills to the Governor's Desk.

SB 840 will now go to the Senate Appropriations Committee.  A hearing 
date has not yet been scheduled.

SB 1014 will be heard in the Senate Revenue and Taxation Committee this 
Wednesday 4/25/07.  If a member of the committee is your legislator, 
they need to hear from you!
