The scale of this response has provided us with significant leverage for our upcoming meetings with legislative leadership. I am currently finalizing the formal brief that presents our legal arguments against SJR 21 for immediate delivery to the Governor’s office.

We are approaching the one thousand signature milestone which will serve as our primary leverage during the upcoming legislative briefing. Please ensure you have sent the petition link to your own representative to keep the pressure on our target legislators before the committee hearings begin.

We have reached one hundred signatures which provides the necessary leverage to approach key legislative offices. I am currently finalizing a formal letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee detailing our primary objections to SJR 21.

Keep politics out of our courts. This is common sense and we need to stop this now.
