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 747 because it would give Californians a clear way to hold government officials responsible when their basic rights are ignored or denied. This bill is important because everyone should have their rights protected and should be able to take action if those rights are taken away. If SB 747 were to pass, it would make it easier for people to stand up for their rights and help make sure public officials are held accountable when they break the law.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
What is JCJ advocating for?
SB 747 would:
- Strengthen accountability when government officials violate people’s civil rights.
- Give Californians a clearer legal path to seek justice when their constitutional rights are infringed.
- Reinforce the principle that public officials should be held responsible for unlawful actions.
- Help build greater trust in government by ensuring public institutions are accountable to the people they serve.
Why are we advocating for civil rights and government accountability?
The Jewish Center for Justice believes that every person deserves to have their rights respected and protected. Guided by the Jewish value of Tzedek (justice), we support SB 747 because it promotes accountability, strengthens civil rights protections, and helps ensure that everyone is treated fairly under the law.
