Sehr geehrter Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger,
Dear Governor's staff:

Please sign Senate Bill SB-428 as soon as possible!! SB-428 has no fiscal considerations to the State, but signing the bill will save the City of San Diego millions of dollars.

The tiny Casa Beach (the Children's Pool) in La Jolla, California is famous for its colony of harbor seals. The seals' home has been threatened since swimmers sued the City of San Diego and won. The 2005 ruling from a state court judge orders the city to dredge the sand on which seals rest, to  return it to its 1931 condition as a "bathing pool." You are asked to help pass SB-428, legislation to add the language "marine mammal park for the enjoyment and educational benefit of children" that could save the seals.

A judge will try to disperse the seal rookery on 7/20/09, the next court date in Superior Court, without your support and signature on the bill.

Please save this popular tourist attraction and educational treasure. It is the last harbor seal rookery in Southern California and extremely popular with residents and visitors to San Diego!

Sincerely,
