LETTER TO JUDICIARY COMMITTEE REQUESTING FURTHER IMPROVEMENTS TO BILL #494

Dear Members of the Joint Committee on Judiciary,
 
It was somewhat reassuring to hear many members of the committee during the April 1, 2014 committee meeting acknowledge the concerns expressed by parents who testified at the March 31, 2014 public hearing on Bill No. SB00494.
 
However, it was somewhat disappointing to see that in the end, despite the favorable rhetoric, additional changes were not made to Bill No. SB00494 as requested by the parents who testified on March 31, 2014.
 
As such, a petition was started just this morning requesting that Bill No. SB 00494 be amended.  Thus far the petition has been signed by 100 persons (and the list grew by several persons as I wrote this email) requesting that the State Legislature Amend Bill no. SB00494 as noted in the attached Petition.
 
Please take into consideration incorporating the proposed amendments outlined in the attached petition before moving for a full vote on the floor.
 
Please do not hesitate to contact myself or any of the other parents, who have already expressed our concerns to you on numerous occasions, to discuss the content of this petition.
 
Thank you once again for taking time from your busy schedules to review our concerns.
 
Hector Morera
