Urge your Assemblymember to Vote "Yes" on AB 727 Act now to help increase access to healthy foods! AB 727 (Mitchell), sponsored by the California Pan-Ethnic Health Network (CPEHN), would require food sold in state buildings to meet minimum nutritional requirements and sustainable purchasing practices. This bill has made it out of appropriations and could be voted on by the Assembly as soon as tomorrow.
