If you’re in CA, definitely leave messages for your state senator and assemblyperson. I already did and their staffers replied that they got the message.

This and AB1043/AB1856 just make me so mad. These politicians apparently think they can threaten fines upon the open source community and coerce us into implementing their poorly researched laws.

It’s like in a toxic workplace when a non-technical manager agrees to a questionable assignment on your behalf, without your consent, and tells the stakeholder oh yeah, no problem, that’ll take 2 weeks.

What communication did you use? Phone, fax, email, twitter?

I first used the contact form on their website and sent a written message so they have my position in writing.

Since they might get a flood of written correspondence, I also called their district office and either talked to a staffer or left a voicemail telling them the same thing.

The key is the district office phone number, not the capitol phone number. One of my reps said the capitol phone line was understaffed and they missed one of my voicemails.
