AMSA's Big INITIATIVES
Statewide AMSA Movement
- UNIVERSAL HEALTH CARE for CALIFORNIA: SB 840… AMSA members helped lobby for it in Sacramento

- Even though: Governor Schwarzenegger vetoed this law on October 2, 2006, and again in 2007 and 2008! There is still much we can all do to support this principle for our state's health again.
