LHA Members,
Please visit your local legislator websites (both Assembly and Senate) and RSVP for their District Open Houses. This is a great time to get face to face with legislators and their key staff. Please feel free to discuss housing in their district and please also hit on the following items:
- Put a bill on the governor's desk now that will provide a 10% increase across the board to DDS budget to provide 10% rate increases for vendors serving people with developmental disabilities and 10% in regional center operating budgets
- The state budget currently has a surplus and the 10% across the board increase should come from the general fund
- No new taxes means simple majority vote will get the bill through- make the Governor make a move. Happy Holidays! Darin
