My 2 cents: I think it would be very helpful to have the issue(s) condensed to a factual "position paper" that outlines the problem, the stakeholders, a desired outcome and the pro's and con's of the outcome. If legislative action is needed, many people presenting the same clear message is important. If the cause is noble (it is) and one of the results is significant revenue, I think it would be seriously considered.
Is it possible to reduce this issue to one page?; is someone with the knowledge and history willing to write it up? I'd be willing to talk to my Assemblyman with that information. Besides, he represents Modesto, CA, hometown of American Graffetti.
