====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== March 1, 2006 Utah--More Calls Needed To Protect Parental Rights Dear HSLDA members and friends: This is the last day of Utah's 2006 legislative session, and House Bill 148 is stuck in the Senate Rules Committee. If it does not move out before midnight tonight, it will die when the legislature closes! We believe that if this bill moves out of the Rules Committee, it will be passed by the entire Senate. ACTION REQUESTED: 1. Please call and email the Senators listed below right now, and give them this message: "House Bill 148 would protect the rights of parents. Please take every effort to move it out of the Rules Committee and pass it this legislative session!" To call these members, dial the Utah Senate number at 801-538-1035. They can connect you directly, and if the Senator is not available, you can leave a message that will be delivered quickly. Michael G. Waddoups, Rules Committee Chair mwaddoups@utahsenate.org Curtis S. Bramble cbramble@utahsenate.org D. Chris Buttars dcbuttars@utahsenate.org Sheldon Killpack skillpack@utahsenate.org Dave L. Thomas dthomas@co.summit.ut.us Carlene M. Walker cwalker@utahsenate.org 2. Please call your senator and ask them to take action on H.B. 148 today, before the legislature closes. To contact your legislator, visit HSLDA's legislative toolbox http://www.hslda.org/toolbox . BACKGROUND: H.B. 148 arose out of a controversy in which a court allowed the former lesbian lover of the child's natural mother to stand in the place of the parent against the wishes of the mother. The provisions of this bill would protect the rights of parents against courts that would otherwise allow third parties to stand in the place of a parent over the wishes of a natural parent.
