SB 564 - School Based Health Clinics Bill Now On the Governor's Desk - He Needs to Hear from You Now!
On May 2, 2007 I posted a blog about this bill. If signed into law, it would pave the way for public schools to be entering too far into the health care business. This would include exposing schools to medical malpractice lawsuits and expending school dollars for health care issues. All of these activities would be most often without parental consent or notification.
This bill is bad public policy from a fiscal and parental rights point of view. The State of California should strengthen parental rights, not undermine them. It should also not be launching the State and School Districts into new financial endeavors when our state budget is suffering a huge deficit.
If you wish to help by contacting the Governor and urging him to veto SB 564, you can send him a letter similar to the one here: SB_564.doc
Another way to communicate with the Governor is by e-mail at http://gov.ca.gov/interact#contact You can not attach a letter like the one above but you can cut and paste your letter into the e-mail as text.
Thank you for speaking up!
