Powerful comments from Representative Lucy McBath as the #StopCampusHazingAct is marked-up in the House Committee on Education & the Workforce: "While the circumstances may be just somewhat different, I know the pain of losing a child. I know the hole it leaves in your soul and the questions it leaves you to continue to dwell on for the rest of your lives… The only thing that we can do now is try to harness our pain and do something positive with it. To try to make a lasting change that will prevent other families from suffering a similar tragedy and creating a long-lasting legacy that truly speaks to the person that you loved so deeply. It’s the same reason that I decided to run for Congress, and the same reason that drove Jeanne Clery’s parents to take their power back as parents and get the Clery Act signed into law after the tragic killing of their daughter on campus in 1986. Jeanne Clery’s parents made the same argument that I have heard time and time again from families who have lost loved ones to collegiate hazing. 'If only we had known.' 'If only we had been made aware sooner.'  'If only we had been given a clearer picture of the real situation on the ground, maybe I could have done something different, and maybe my son or my daughter or my brother or my sister would still be here with me.' That’s what this bill simply is about. It’s about empowering students and families, so that they can make an informed decision for themselves about what school they or their loved one attends or the club they may join and hopefully save their lives… And I encourage all of my colleagues to support this truly bipartisan piece of legislation that saves our children’s lives. They are the least of these. They deserve to be kept safe in their homes, in their communities, and simply when they go off to college. I look forward to getting this bill signed into law by the President in this Congress and providing a sense of relief and closure for all of you that have been left behind." PLEASE help us get #SCHA on to the next important step, a vote on the House floor. This easy, fast form to sends a letter to your representatives. It truly makes a difference for lawmakers to see these emails in their inboxes! https://lnkd.in/dYyNukY #EndHazing #CampusSafety #CleryAct
