Hi! Let’s work on getting to 750 signatures for Cocoa’s Law of Love together by sharing, promoting if you can and emailing, writing or calling your local lawmakers. I’m from Florida but I’m not only trying to get this pass in Florida, this needs to be world wide. No matter where you’re from, contact your lawmakers via phone, email or letter however you prefer please. 

Email template you can send to your local lawmakers as well as major politicians (I.e. president, vice president): 
Subject: Support for Cocoa’s Law of Love – A Call for Compassion and Change

Dear [Senator/Representative/Lawmaker’s Name],

My name is [Your Name], and I’m writing to you not just as a citizen, but as someone who has experienced deep personal loss that opened my eyes to the value of animal rights and emotional connection with animals.

In honor of my beloved pet gecko, Cocoa, who brought immense joy, comfort, and companionship into my life, I’m proposing Cocoa’s Law of Love — a legislative initiative aimed at [briefly explain the purpose of the law, such as: "strengthening animal welfare protections," "recognizing the emotional bonds between people and their pets," or "establishing a national day to honor animals and promote humane treatment"].

Animals are not just property — they are family. Their lives matter. And for so many of us, their loss is just as profound as losing any loved one. Cocoa’s Law would be a step toward recognizing this truth in our policies.

I believe that a society is judged by how it treats its most vulnerable. By passing Cocoa’s Law, we can show love, respect, and responsibility — not only to animals but to the people who care for them and grieve for them.

Please consider supporting this proposal. I would be grateful for the opportunity to speak with you further or provide any materials needed to advance this initiative.

With hope and compassion,
[Your Full Name]
[Your City/State]
