The author of the article I linked to in the last IRIS message wrote me to let me know that the California forced treatment law has not necessarily passed as of yet. It did pass the state assembly and was on the senate floor for a third reading as of last week but it is not clear if senators voted on it before they went home after passing the budget. For updates on this bill (AB 2357), please go to http://delphinegrrl.googlepages.com/events or go to the California state senate website and enter 2357 in the bill number field. My apologies for misreading the headline and here's hoping my subject line ultimately turns out to be wrong this session. Powered by LSoft's LISTSERV(R) list management software
