Candlelight Vigil on National Mall

MADD is excited to share an invitation to an event in Washington, D.C., on November 19 from 4:00-6:00 pm to mark the 3-year anniversary of the HALT Act being signed into law. Everyone is invited to attend – please share the invitation with your community partners, family members, and all who support the HALT Act to save 10,000 lives a year.

The time is NOW to raise our collective voice to urge the newly elected President, their Administration, and lawmakers to prioritize this safety feature that will save 10,000 lives when fully implemented. The HALT Act gave the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) until November 15, 2024, to complete a rule (regulation) for anti-drunk driving technology that will be built into new vehicles. We can’t let this deadline quietly pass us by when drunk driving kills or injures someone every 78 seconds! 
For people who would like to participate but cannot travel to D.C. please send photos of your family members and friends that they would like to honor to [email protected]. We will print the photos and display them at the event.
 
We are working on a virtual option to watch the event live. We will have a video of the event to share afterward. More details to come!
 
Please let us know if you have any questions at [email protected] or call 808-532-6232.

Thank you, MADD Government Affairs
