SAMPLE LETTER:

Dear Assemblymember Chesbro,

I am writing to urge your support for A.B. 1005 (Dickinson), which would restore much-needed funding for the inspection of logging operations, protecting wildlife and watershed and recreation values in California's forests— while potentially saving taxpayers millions in cleanup and other environmental costs.

In keeping with the principle of "polluter pays," A.B. 1005 would require the timber companies to pay for these inspections, which currently are funded by the taxpayers.

Please give your vote and your active support to this vital measure.

Sincerely,

You name and address
