"Hi, my name is [NAME] I'm a constituent living in [city]. I'm calling today to urge the Assemblymember to vote aye on SB300, The Sentencing Reform Act of 2021. SB 300 brings crucial reform to California’s unjust and extreme felony murder special circumstance law by ensuring that the death penalty and life without parole sentences won’t be imposed on people who did not kill, or intend a person to die, during a crime. This is a common-sense reform that will improve equality in California’s criminal legal system, particularly for our Black and Brown community members who are disproportionately harmed by felony murder special circumstances. Thank you for your time and support!”
