The one strike law is officially federal policy and we finally secured the justice Christopher deserved. My hands are shaking as I type this because the fight felt impossible for so long. We will stay vigilant to ensure these protections hold firm.
Christopher Barrios was a 6 year old boy raped and murdered by convicted child molesters. We MUST change the laws. Our goal is to have a federal law that supercedes the various state laws. If a person is convicted ONCE for molesting a child he/she should spend life in prison without the possibility of parole. The one strike law!
We hit five hundred signatures today and while the sheer weight of this issue remains heavy on my heart I am grateful to see others pushing alongside me. This process is exhausting but seeing your names here proves we are not willing to let this go.

This is common sense. How is this even still up for debate when kids are losing their lives? Lock them up for good and throw away the key.

Life means life. Why are we letting these people back on the streets to hurt someone else? Absolute insanity.

Protect the children first. Period. No parole for monsters like that.

My heart breaks for his family. We need this law passed right now so no other parents have to go through this nightmare.
