JUNE 2005 NEWSLETTER
GEORGIA LAW FOR CHILDREN GROUP
U.S. Representative Mark Foley of Florida is writing Federal Legislation (similar to the FL Jessica Lundsford Act recently signed into law) to mandate a national data base for registered Sex Offenders/Predators; require GPS Tracking of parolees; stiffen prison sentences of those convicted of a sexual crime against children and other important features. At present there is only a national Amber Alert law in place, so no laws governing offenders are consistent nationally.
We ask you write, Fax or email your US Reps and Senators to support Rep. Foley’s law. WITHOUT CITIZEN PRESSURE THIS WILL NEVER HAPPEN. WE ARE COUNTING ON YOU TO GIVE A FEW MINUTES OF YOUR TIME TO SAVE A CHILD IN YOUR FAMILY OR ONE PRECIOUS TO OTHERS.
