An MCLI Victory in the State Assembly
August 9 — Sacramento, CA: The State Assembly voted in support of 
MCLI-authored Assembly Concurrent Resolution (ACR) 129! This piece of legislation, sponsored by Assemblymember Bill Monning, will mandate reports to the UN on the status of human rights enforcement in California. The legislation now moves to the state Senate and MCLI is working hard with Assemblymember Monning's office to have it voted on before the Senate summer break.
