FLORIDA: URGENT ACTION ITEM
URGENT CALL to ACTION in FLORIDA
A 50/50 presumption for child custody is being tucked into an alimony bill (which is bad overall, especially for elderly women) and is moving forward quickly.
The companion bill numbers are HB1395 and SB1796. Florida state lawmakers need to hear from you to VOTE NO on these terrible bills, especially Senators.
Call, tweet, write FL Senators to urge them to VOTE NO on SB1796 and to VOTE NO on any amendment to include a 50/50 presumption in SB1796.
In the House HB1395 faces a floor vote this week (probably Thursday) and would create a presumption that equal time-sharing is in the best interests of minor child, when in fact it moves AWAY from child’s best interest. Such a policy is very bad for DV victims, including children.
ALSO URGENT:
Rep. Chris Sprowls (Twitter: @ChrisSprowls) and Rep. Erin Grall (Twitter: @ErinGrall) are preventing Greyson’s Law from being heard. Be sure to contact them and let your voices be heard.
Make your voices heard!
Side Note but very important:
Judge George M Wright (Alachua and Bradford County) that according to his ruling history has CONSISTANTLY ruled against the female/mother and victim of domestic violence and child abuse. We are asking independent advocates to call the Florida commission review board 850-488-1581 – he is a newly appointed Judge he recently placed a child who was molested with the abuser! He has denied countless requests for protection with substantial evidence.
Judge Dan Mosley in Lake County- we invite you to investigate his rulings on trellis.com.
