Here is a letter that I have put together for your use to write to your California elected Assemblymember/Senator. I put this together myself. Any corrections or improvements are welcome:

The Honorable __________
The address of the Elected Representative/Assemblymember/Senator
Dear Senator/Assembly member ____________:
As a proud Member of ________________, I am in favor of individual Second Amendment rights, and ask that you please support AB-357, introduced by Assemblyman Steve Knight.
AB-357 is the bill that changes Section 12050 of the CA Penal Code from “may issue” to “Shall Issue”, and it eliminates the abuse with regard to Sheriffs & Chiefs of Law Enforcement Agencies awarding CCW permits to only those who contribute the most to their campaigns.
This extremely important legislation, while making the streets safer, will also bring equal treatment under the law for law-abiding citizens of the State of California.
Currently, there are more than 35 states that issue "Shall Issue" CCW permits/licenses for the carrying of handguns.
Ultimately, no gun control legislation and/or regulation has reduced crime one tenth of one percent in any place in the United States of America, and that is why it is time to rethink the regulations that have infringed upon the rights of California’s most law-abiding citizen residents. AB-357 is the right place to start.
Please consider.
Sincerely,
Your name
Erik.
