I just got off the phone after calling every single co-author of Assembly Bill 1729, and I have to say — it was one of the most uplifting things I’ve done in a long time.
I called each office simply to express my gratitude for their support of telework, and without exception, every single person I spoke with was warm, genuine, and truly thankful to hear from a constituent calling with appreciation rather than a complaint.
That’s it. No agenda. No demands. Just a thank you.
Here’s what I walked away with: our voices matter, and so does our gratitude. Legislators and their staff work incredibly hard, and a simple call of thanks goes a long way. You could hear it in their voices.
So I’m encouraging everyone here to do the same. It takes maybe 10–15 minutes total, the calls are short and easy, and you will feel amazing afterward. Be kind, be brief, and just say thank you for supporting AB 1729 and the telework community.
These are the people fighting for our flexibility and our quality of life — let them know it doesn’t go unnoticed.
📞 Pick up the phone. Make the calls. Spread the gratitude.
The telework community is stronger when we show up — even just to say thank you.
