<p class="MsoNormal">Dear CDNC Users,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you for the show of support over the last day. It’s been overwhelming, literally, but in a good way. We have nearly 30,000 emails on the email list. I’ve received thousands of messages in my inbox. I’m sorry I can’t respond to each
of you individually. Many of you could not contact the committee members through the forms I sent because you aren’t in their districts. I apologize for that. Since the committees represent the entire state, I assumed that anyone, at least in California, could
contact the members.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I do have more information to share, including email addresses to use. First, though, I want to collect all the relevant information and dot the Is and cross the Ts. I’ll share a more detailed update in the coming days.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks again and more soon…<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
