Call Script
Hello, my name is {YOUR NAME}, and I'm a constituent calling to urge you to vote YES on AB 2534, the Domestic Violence Prevention Act expansion on forced marriage. This bill recognizes forced marriage as the serious form of abuse it truly is and gives courts the authority to issue protective orders to keep vulnerable people safe. Every person deserves the freedom to enter marriage willingly — coercion has no place in a healthy family or society. Please stand up for the protection of vulnerable Californians and vote YES on AB 2534. Thank you so much for your time and service.
