I don't know if any of you watched Oprah the other day, but I just can't stop thinking about it. I've cried almost every day since and I just can't shake the horror that is happening to our babies all over this country. I won't go into detail for those of you that didn't watch it because I don't want you to have the nightmares and breakdown's that I have had. What I am asking of you is for your help. Oprah asked that all of us write to our our Senators and ask for this initiative to be passed. I don't normally write my politicians, but this is something I couldn't in good conscience sit idly by and not do anything. Please, please for the safety of our children follow this link and send this message to you're Senators. I did it the other day and all it took was about 5 minutes. Just copy and paste the sample letter bellow and sign your name. It's really easy.
Help Pass Senate Bill 1738—The PROTECT Our Children Act
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.

Dear Senator:I know that you believe, like I do, that we must do everything possible to protect children from sexual predators. That is why I am asking for your help.Last year alone, U.S. law enforcement identified over 300,000 criminals who were trafficking in movies and pictures of young children being raped and tortured. Experts say that one in every three of these criminals has local child victims. Child pornography trafficking over the Internet has given us a trail of evidence that leads straight to their doorsteps, but the vast majority of these children will never be rescued because investigators are overwhelmed, outnumbered and underfunded.As your constituent, I urge you to do everything in your power to pass the PROTECT Our Children Act (S. 1738, Biden-Hatch). This bipartisan legislation passed the House 415-2, but it is now the victim of petty partisan politics.Now that we know where these children are and how to protect them, there is no excuse for the Senate to fail to take action this session.(Your name here)
