Sample script:
Hello, my name is [Your Name] and I’m calling as a member of the Jewish Center for Justice in zip code [your zip code].
I am urging [name of representative] to vote for SB 1125 because it helps ensure that every Californian has access to clean, safe, and affordable drinking water. Many smaller communities struggle to maintain reliable water systems, and this bill would help identify where the greatest risks exist while creating a plan to provide the funding those communities need.If SB 1125 were to pass, it would strengthen California’s efforts to protect drinking water, support smaller water systems, and help ensure that all communities have access to safe water regardless of their size or location.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
What is JCJ advocating for?
SB 1125 would:
- Improve access to safe and affordable drinking water for small communities.
- Help identify groundwater sources that are at high risk of contamination.
- Assess the funding needed to support small community water systems serving fewer than 3,000 connections.
- Strengthen long-term planning to ensure reliable access to clean drinking water across California.
Why are we advocating for safe and affordable drinking water?
The Jewish Center for Justice believes that everyone deserves access to clean, safe drinking water. Guided by the Jewish value of Tikkun Olam (repairing the world), we support SB 1125 because it helps protect public health, strengthens communities, and promotes a healthier and more sustainable future for all Californians.
