JUSTINA PELLETIER RECEIVES WELL DESERVED ACKNOWLEDGEMENT FROM CONGRESS!

Journalist Kathleen Schassler of "West Hartford News" reports as follows:

JUSTINA PELLETIER BRINGS CONGRESS TO ITS FEET:

"Home less than a month, Justina Pelletier received a standing ovation on Wednesday from about 70 members of Congress during a whirlwind trip to Washington D.C. to push for a new bill nicknamed "Justina's Law."

Justina traveled with family to advocate for the bill, aimed at protecting children from a fate similar to one Justina just endured, according to the family.

Introduced by U.S. Rep. Michele Bachmann, (R-Minn) and co-sponsored by U.S. Rep. John Larson, (D-1st District), the bill seeks to ban federal funding for medical experiments on children who are wards of the state."
