Belt Our Babies - Pennsylvania

The safety of our students should be the priority. Lawmakers need to pass and FUND legislation that ensures that ALL vehicles that transport school students, including buses, must be equipped with seat belts. Give our local school districts the legislation and the funds they need to protect our kids!

Why is this important?

The recent bus accident involving Paramus, NJ middle school students has once again brought the seat belt debate to the forefront. Seat belts are required by law in most passenger vehicles, but yet they are not required for our school buses. Our babies deserve to be safe when being transported to and from school. Belt Our Babies!
