Dear Mr. Scocos:
I had inquired of the Senate Chief Clerk as to the preferred method to be used to have my name removed as cosponsor of an Assembly Bill. He informed me that I should make the request to your office in writing.
Please have my name removed as a cosponsor to 2001 Assembly Bill 253 authored by Representative Tim Hoven. This Bill is related to Eliminating Utility Public Benefits Fees and Commitment to Community Programs.
Please confirm by e-mail to my office that my request has been complied with.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
With kindest regards,
State Senator Dale Schultz
17th Senate District
