<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>After a little politics and
some solid work by Assembly Member Smyth, AB 534 moved out of committee today
with a vote of 8-2. While some Republicans still feel doubling the size
of the account is not a good idea, we did receive support from Assembly Member
Shirley Horton and Assembly Member Guy Houston.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt'>Thanks to Kevin O’neil (Chief
of Staff to Asm. Smyth), Justin Fanslau (Lobbyist for the California Bicycle
Coalition),and Doug Houston (Lobbyist for the California Parks Association) for
their hard work in the capitol and committee today. And thank you for
sending your letters of support.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
