URGENT: ACTION NEEDED NOW

Monday's surprise upheavel in the New York State Senate puts the progress of the Child Victims Act of New York (the "Markey/Duane Bill" Assembly Bill Number A2596 and Senate Bill Number S2568) in the hands of Senator Dean G. Skelos of Long Island. Senator Skelos has been supportive of some legislation designed to protect our children but has not yet committed to the Markey/Duane Bill.

Please call Senator Skelos' office and tell him that you are a supporter of the Markey/Duane Bill and that you are counting on him him to allow it to the Senate floor for a vote. Explain that you and your neighbors will support any member of the Senate who votes in favor of the Markey/Duane Bill and will likewise vote against any Senator who chooses to play politics with our children's lives by voting against a bill that protects children.

Senator Skelos needs to hear from us daily in order to understand how important this bill is to our children.

Remember, five minutes of your time may save a child's life.
