Just arrived at the State Capitol to speak in support of lifesaving speed camera bill #AB645!
We're w/Carol representing her senior living community, crash survivor Julie, & MD Susan who treated far too many crash victims in her career.
Hope to report back later that the Senate Judiciary Committee vote YES to #PassAB645!
We're thrilled that AB 645 was passed by the Senate Transportation Committee on Tuesday in a 10 to 5 vote -- but there's more needed!
