Are you willing to draft some rough bullet points (that you urge people to NOT copy and paste) on SB-1047 that might help people complete this exercise faster?
Also, do you have a sense for how much better a slightly longer letter (e.g. a 1 page note) is as compared to just a 1 paragraph email with something like: “As a [location] resident concerned about AI safety, I urge you to sign SB 1047 into law. AI safety is important to me because [1 sentence].”
FWIW, I did just send off an email, but it took me more like ~30 minutes to skim this post and then draft something. I also wasn’t sure how important it was to create the PDF — otherwise I would have just sent an email on my phone, which would again have been a bit faster.

This page has a number of points (it also includes a few other actions that you can take).

One paragraph is definitely fine unless you have personal experience that is relevant (for example, you are an AI researcher, founder, etc.).

Makes sense! It is important to create the PDF, just how these things are supposed to be submitted.
