Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) needs your help to advance Bentley\u2019s Law in Connecticut to require impaired drivers to pay child support when an impaired driver causes a crash that kills a parent or guardian.<\/p>\n

What is Bentley\u2019s Law?<\/strong> The Cli, SB 844 by Senator Kissel, is modeled after a law in Tennessee, which makes impaired drivers pay child support to a surviving spouse or other relatives who are raising the children of impaired driving victims until the children turn 18. For more information, click here for more information<\/u>.<\/a>

Taking action is quick and easy<\/a>. Click here to let your voice be heard<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n

Bentley\u2019s Law better ensures justice and accountability. MADD believes that passing Bentley\u2019s Law will make people think twice before getting behind the wheel impaired. If a person makes the choice to drive impaired and kills a parent, the person will encounter another consequence for their deadly decision. To the victim of the impaired drivers, Bentley\u2019s Law allows for another avenue of restitution to help ensure justice.<\/p>\n

Please take action today!<\/a><\/p>\n

Sincerely,
Bob Garguilo
