You can do this!


Please write our senators and implore that they pass the Protect Our Children Act.
Click here to see a sample letter.

Hundreds of thousands of children are victims of sexual abuse each year. Due to the sheer lack of resources, law enforcement is unable to follow up on the majority of leads they have.

The PROTECT Our Children Act will:

Authorize over $320 million over the next five years in desperately needed funding for law enforcement to investigate child exploitation.
Mandate that child rescue be a top priority for law enforcement receiving federal funding.
Allocate funds for high-tech computer software that can track down Internet predators.

The Honorable Senator Lugar

Washington, DC 20510-1401

The Honorable Senator Bayh
US Senate
131 Russell Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510-1404

The only thing that is sketchy about this is that it gives the government permission to tap into our personal computers any time, without warning. While I support anything that helps children stay safe, I am weary to allow people who don't know me to look into my "recent searches" to see if I am a potential pedophile.
