Call-in ALERT !!
Conscientious Exemption to Mandatory Immunization

We are quickly approaching the
January 1 deadline for NJ's mandated flu shot.
We just don't know how many kids will be excluded from daycare & pre-
school if they don't have their flu shot as of January 1, 2009.
We have never needed Vaccination Choice in NJ more… act now and let
your voice be heard!
Apparently 10,000+ signatures on our petition are not getting the
attention of NJ lawmakers.

Make just 5 phone calls (and email everyone you know to do the same)
if you value VACCINATION CHOICE!
Call-in will be on Monday December 1- Wednesday December 3 (and
beyond).

Who to call:

(1) Governor Jon Corzine: (609) 292- 6000 or fax (609) 292-3454

(2) Heather How ard (NJ Health Commissioner) : (609) 292-7837, or
try her email: heather.howard@ doh.state. nj.us or fax: (609) 984-5474

(3) Your 3 NJ Legislators: To find your district and your 3 state
legislators, go to http://www.njleg. state.nj. us/members/ legsearch. asp

and then check here to see if they are one of 35 sponsors already
http://njvaccinatio nchoice.org/ sponsors. html
- It's important to thank those already signed on, and
encourage them to actively work to push the bill forward.
- If they are NOT a co-sponsor, ask them urgently to co-
sponsor NJ legislative bill A260/S10 71, the Conscientious Exemption
to Mandatory Immunization.

Message:
As the Jan. 1 mandatory flu shot deadline is upon us, it is URGENT
that they support and pass
Assembly Bill A260 (on the Senate side it's known as S1071) as soon
as possible. If time permits, share your own reasons why you want
vaccination choice.
