I support the enactment of a vehicular manslaughter statute that would make it a crime to drive a motor vehicle in a negligent manner or while committing an unlawful act that does not amount to a felony that results in the death of any person in a motor vehicle. This act would be known as VALERIE'S LAW.
I never thought I would see this much energy behind the idea and honestly just seeing how many people want Valerie's Law to be a real thing makes my head spin in the best way. My hands are actually shaking a little bit while I type this because it feels like the momentum has shifted into something entirely new and real.

Too many people just get a slap on the wrist for killing someone behind the wheel. It needs to stop now. Justice for Valerie.

My heart breaks for this family. Driving is a serious responsibility and if you take a life you should be held accountable. Period.

About time we got some real laws on the books. This is just common sense.
