Petition:
We undersigned , call on State Legislature to enact a law known as Mya's Law
We request that the Legislation require that any person charged with any type of sexual offense to the minors shall not be permitted to have any contact with minors under age of 16 until they are found not guilty.
The aim of this Law would be to create a better protection for children from sex offenders living in their communities who are not registered.
