I'm ecstatic to share that our bill has successfully passed out of the House and Senate Public Safety Committees! Also, both bills are officially bipartisan!
What's next? Things feel hopeful but we still need your help. The Rules Committee decides what bills get voted on by the whole House of Representatives and Senate. Can you please send the following email to the House Rules Committee Chairs? Just copy/paste/personalize and send one email to the whole group. THANK YOU!
Subject: Floor Vote for HF 104
To: rep.jamie.long@house.mn.gov, rep.harry.niska@house.mn.gov, rep.elliott.engen@house.mn.gov, rep.athena.hollins@house.mn.gov
Dear Rules Committee Leadership,
I urge you to schedule HF 104 for a floor vote. When only 3% of rape cases are successfully prosecuted, this bill is critical to giving victims of sexual violence another pathway to seek accountability, justice and healing.
HF 104 has bipartisan support and passed out of the public safety committee. Now, it's in your hands. Please schedule a floor vote in April as a tribute to Sexual Assault Awareness Month and to support the countless victims and survivors across Minnesota.
Thank you for your consideration and support.
Sincerely,
Your Full Name, Your City/Town of Residence
