Mr. Appelsmith is a senior advisor to Governor Brown. DFI (http://www.dfi.ca.gov http://www.dfi.ca.gov) reports to BTH and BTH (http://www.bth.ca.gov http://www.bth.ca.gov) reports to the Governor (http://www.gov.ca.gov http://www.gov.ca.gov). If anyone does choose to write to him, and I encourage everyone to do so, please be polite even if you are firm. I have talked to just about all of the people on that list with an e-mail address ending in .gov. So they should be familiar with the issues, and they will probably be surprised to hear that the public cares.
