HR BILL 4266 IGNORED...CHILDREN CONTINUE TO DIE

To All,

It has been over 3 years since we got involved in the battle to save our children from these types of accidents.

It has been a lot longer for the families who have lost children and have tried to raise the awareness of the nation and make our lawmakers do something to protect other children.

For three years as HR Bill 1861 died in committee and HR 4266 was resubmitted we have gathered nearly 11,000 signatures on our petition but still members of Congress have turned a blind eye and children continue to die.

We are hopeful with that with the new administration just elected promising change things might actually well "CHANGE"

HR 4266 was submitted 12/17/07 and in almost a year has only garnered 11 co-sponsors

Rep Baldwin, Tammy [WI-2] - 2/7/2008
Rep Chandler, Ben [KY-6] - 1/16/2008
Rep Cleaver, Emanuel [MO-5] - 2/6/2008
Rep Eshoo, Anna G. [CA-14] - 3/14/2008
Rep Fossella, Vito [NY-13] - 12/19/2007
Rep Graves, Sam [MO-6] - 2/14/2008
Rep LoBiondo, Frank A. [NJ-2] - 12/18/2007
Rep McGovern, James P. [MA-3] - 12/4/2007
Rep Moore, Dennis [KS-3] - 2/25/2008
Rep Price, David E. [NC-4] - 2/25/2008
Rep Skelton, Ike [MO-4] - 3/4/2008

Please contact your Representative and have them get on board to protect the most venerable in our society.

Don't let another family have to lose another child as did the DiTomaso did this week in Yonkers.
