Next 3 days -- URGENT:
To all USA citizens -- left or right, red or
blue!
Help last minute push for bill to protect
US kids from psychiatric drug abuse!
What bill unites Americans of *all* political
stripes -- red and blue
-- from NAACP to Eagle Forum?
It is a simple, commonsense bill to protect USA
families from
pressure by schools to put their kids on
psychiatric drugs.
The next three days (12/6 to 12/8) is your last
chance in 2006 to get
this bill through the US Senate.
The Child Medication Safety Act was first
introduced in Congress in
2003. It passed the House overwhelmingly but was
killed in the
Senate. Essentially the same bill was
re-introduced in the House in
2005. HR 1790 again passed the House
overwhelmingly -- 407 to 12 --
and now is awaiting action by the Senate.
The Child Medication Safety Act (CMSA) would
prohibit schools from
requiring parents to put their children on
powerful psychotropic
medications as a condition of keeping them in
school.
It's the end of the legislative cycle on this
year's bill, and that's
where you come in!
~~~~~~~~~~
ACTION ACTION ACTION
1) Please phone the office of Senate Majority
Leader Bill Frist at
1-202-224-3344 and ask him:
"Please put the Child Medication Safety Act (HR
1790) on the
unanimous consent calendar -- the list of
non-controversial bills --
and pass it this week."
[Note: The office is busy, it may take several
rings for the phone to
be answered, don't give up.]
2) Ask others to do the same! Forward this alert
with personal words
of encouragement! Let's get lots of citizens to
inundate Sen. Frist's
office with civil, polite, but firm requests!
3) Also, please contact your two US Senators and
ask them to support
this bill. Plus, it is time for everyone who
cares about the problem
of kids and psychiatric drugs to know their
Senators' staff who work
on health issues both at home and in D.C.! We may
need to try again
in 2007.
To easily find your two Senators' full contact
information (phone,
Internet, etc.) you may use the pull down menu in
the upper right
hand corner of the Senate web site here:
