The Repeal

State Senator, Tom Goodwin has been gathering support lately for the repeal of the decal law. Goodwin makes valid points in his arguments, frequently catching the ear of many other politicians and families with young drivers, such as Congressman Chris Smith. "It's our job to make sure nothing happens to our young people," he said. "Each day that goes by, we're putting them at risk. Let's end this decal now." The Senator launched an online petition around May 10, 2010 that was immediately signed more than 2,400 times. More than 500 people, mostly parents, have left comments on the petition page supporting the repeal. Thousands of teenagers have jumped on-board with Goodwin and have even gone to the extent of creating facebook groups and pages with more then 100,000 people in favor of the repeal. One group, entitled I Support Senator Tom Goodwin in Repealing Kyleighs Law, has more than 10,000 members. Senator Goodwin continues to make progress with his repeal.
