I petition the President, the US House and the US Senate to immediately write and pass a law mandating that all schools have safe places, underground, where the children, the teachers and potentially the community may go when Nature or other disasters strike. Let us not loose another child or teacher to a disaster that we could protect them from. Shelter underground is the only safe place in the line of a Tornado. These shelters could be used if there were other disasters as well, including potentially, school invasions. But primarily this is to use what we know now to protect children who are in the line of these increasingly deadly storms.
Why is this important?
Please create a federal law to protect our children, give them a safe place in the school, underground so that when severe weather strikes, or if the school is somehow threatened by nature or other forces, that the children and their teachers have a chance to remain safe! Schools in Tornado Alley Must have safe places underground to protect the children, the teachers and the community around them. This must be a federal law and funds must be made available so that poorer communities have the same protection. Make this law now so that no more lives are lost.
