Legislative Resources - Powerful Speakers
As part of our efforts at Legislative
reform and the passage of a Family Rights Act -- we
can expect to see Congressional Hearings held and testimony made. Right
now our effort is focused on getting Members of Congress to take a public
position and call for hearings to investigate the need for reform.
Many of us who are active in reform have
attended meetings and had the chance to hear people speak on the need for
reform. We'd like to collect a list of "professionals" who would
be willing to testify before Congress regarding the problems in the present
system. Remember, the most important
testimony will come from parents deprived of a chance to raise their own
children -- but the people below will certainly help in the effort.
They will be shown in order by
State/Country. These people may not necessarily all agree on the
solution (or our solution), but they know there is a serious problem which must
be addressed. If you know someone, please contact them and ask if they
would be willing to testify -- then send us their
information.
