Abuse registry laws are unfair to families across our nation. When a call is made to the Child Abuse Hotline your name stays there and is not removed, even if the allegations were proven unfounded or negative. However, what you do not know is that you cannot get a job in certain fields due to this. We need to reform this law to protect families, with a term limits and a removal process of expungement when calls are unfounded or fraudulent.
I have spent this week reading the stories of people blocked from their careers by these permanent markers. Email your state representative today and demand that they review the expungement process for unfounded claims. Send the petition link to three friends who need to understand how this system unfairly targets families.

The momentum behind this reform movement is undeniable and proves how many families have been harmed by these unfair registry laws. Now we need to turn this energy into action by emailing your state representative today. Demand a clear process for expunging unfounded allegations from the records.
