Trig Sexual predators, what you can do this week to stop them!
Hundreds of thousands of children are victims of sexual abuse each year. Due to the lack of resources, law enforcement is unable to follow up on the majority of leads they have. The Protect our Children Act can help amend this.
We have just another week before this goes in front of the senate for a vote. You can email your senator and help make a difference. Everything you need is on Oprahs website, links to your senators and even a sample letter of what to write. Please do this!!

Who cares if its hundreds or thousands?! Even one child being a victim of sexual abuse is one too many!

When I clicked on the link, it said there was an error processing my request.

Clouds, what are you upset about?

So just what exactly are you saying? And......it's probably more like tens of thousands. Jess is right. Just one child is too many! Wake up.

I have corrected the link posted by the OP

please please please let's not see something like protecting children turn into negative comments.

whether or not one likes oprah, this is about the kids, not her

THIS was the original post

It is about contacting senators about the Protect Our Children Act

It is NOT about Oprah.....It is about PROTECTING CHILDREN

and please, no more graphic videos.

thanks

there are already laws protecting kids

cps screws up familys with sleezy foster families etc

read the fine print to "all these great new improved laws " before you tell congress to vote yes

maybe its a good law though
