Stolen from CV on the BGS: "..it is a petition to pass a bi-partisan bill that puts rapists in jail, it is called the Debbie Smith act. It has passed the senate, now it needs to pass the house. If any of you know anything about our political system, it is amazing that it made it out of committee even, so let's put our voices behind this. If you have been raped or abused, or know someone (and you know you do)[or if you don't, but want this bill to pass] please sign this."
