Calling all PA Moms!
It’s time for you to Send the Msg:
Stop distracted driving in Pennsylvania!
We’ve got a bill in PA that would ban texting and driving but it is sitting in committee. We need to get the PA moms behind this to tell our lawmakers it has to be made into law!
I just know the moms can do this.
OK, everyone – we have a job to do! …..In Pennsylvania, a
banning texting and talking on hand-held phones while driving bill has passed the Transportation Committee and it now sits in Appropriations awaiting a full House vote.
What on earth are Pennsylvania’s lawmakers waiting for? As each hour ticks by, texting drivers continue to travel the roads of Pennsylvania essentially with blindfolds on.
This must stop.
Pennsylvania moms, we know what we need to do:
1) Rep. Eugene DePasquale, who represents the 95th district, and Rep. Josh Shapiro have been working tirelessly on this cause for years. In fact, Rep. DePasquale has a petition we need to sign that urges Pennsylvania lawmakers to pass this important legislation against distracted driving. PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION HERE.
2) Please urge your legislators to pass the bill and make it a law. To find out who your legislators are in the Pennsylvania General Assembly, go here:
http://www.legis.state.pa.us/ and call them or send them an email demanding they pass the ban on distracted driving in Pennsylvania!
3) Put a link to this post on your Facebook, Tweet it and blog it. SPREAD THE WORD!
4) Sign the Mom Sends the Msg Pledge to “Keep your Mind on the Wheel!”
We look forward to hearing you story, too. If you have a Pennsylvania distracted driving story, comment or question post in the comments below. Thanks everyone, looks like it’s up to the moms to Send the Msg and get that bill passed into law.
