Aug 5th 2015 - Heart Bill signed into law by Governor Dannel Malloy


Aug 5th 2015, 4.40 pm 

Today, I was amongst the lucky, privileged few that were invited to the attend the ceremonial bill signing of Public Act 15-94 -An act concerning the inclusion of cardiopulmonary resuscitation training, the safe use of social media and computer programming instruction in the public school curriculum

It was such an amazing experience to be in the same room as people who have worked so hard to get this bill this far. On June 24th 2015, CT became the 24th state to pass the CPR in Schools Bill. 

Governor Malloy formally signed the bill today, and for each letter of his name he wrote, he used a different pen and kept passing out the pen that he finished writing with till each person in the room got one as a momento of this historical event. He started writing the numbers of the date once he ran out of the letters in his name just so everyone of us present there got a pen! (it was pretty funny haha) It was truly an unforgettable moment.

Students will now get hands on training in how to save a life before they graduate high school. A big thank you to everyone who's support, encouragement, and advocacy over the years made this possible.
