How You Can Help

Many people ask me how they can help support The Jennifer Act. The main thing you can do, as an individual, is contact your State Senators and State Representatives to let them know you support this bill. (See below for detailed instructions)

Also, if you have any ways of bringing media attention to The Jennifer Act - through radio, tv, newspaper, social networking – this is a huge help because it increases the awareness of this cause. If you can spread the word on your facebook pages and have your friends and family do the same, the momentum will be great and widespread.

You can also Sign The Petition – this helps us show the state legislature how important this bill is and how many lives it can spare.

In Florida, Jack Latvala drafted The Jennifer Act in 2010 but could not get the bill heard before Congress because he needed a co-sponsor. So it’s important to let your FL State Senator and Representative know that Jack Latvala is willing to sponsor the bill again but he needs support from others in Congress. Your voice could make a difference in getting this bill passed.
