Action needed:
Call your state senators and assembly members and urge them to adopt a proposal through this year’s state budget process that would refocus 2030 hospital seismic requirements on emergency services and provide additional time for hospitals to comply as they begin the long recovery from the impact of the pandemic.
CHA has created a frequently asked questions (FAQ) document to better support your outreach.
Timing:
Call as soon as possible. This proposal could be acted on as early as next week (week of July 12), as legislators work to conclude business before adjourning July 16 or sooner for summer recess.
Find contact information for both your assembly member and senator on the state Legislature’s site.
