On the recordFebruary 14, 2008
This is legislation that I coauthored with Senator Clinton. On the House side, there were Representatives Jan Schakowsky and Peter King who introduced companion legislation. It addresses the issue of known traffic accidents. There were 230 children killed last year in nontraffic auto accidents. We worked very cooperatively with Senator Nelson and others on the Commerce Committee to put together a package that could be implemented quickly and effectively to help reduce this unnecessary loss of life. I thank Senator Nelson for his work on the committee and certainly offer my praise for the work done on the other side. I am pleased to see that this legislation is going to be passed and sent to the President and become law.
