On the recordMarch 2, 1994
child abductions are a tragic reality in the United States, and the abduction of Polly Klaas brought this fact to the forefront of our society. Today the gentlewoman from California [Ms. Woolsey] and I are introducing the Polly Klaas Child Rescue Act of 1994. This legislation would provide free postage to help families mail out nationwide, pictures and information about an abducted child. The mailing is paid for by a 2 percent spending cut in our congressional franking account. It is a proven fact that when abducted children have been recovered, it has usually been the result of the distribution of pictures and information about the abducted children. By providing families all of the necessary tools to help find their children, hopefully we can avoid other tragedies and further heartache. I ask the Members to please join us in cosponsoring the Polly Klaas Child Rescue Act of 1994.
