Hey,

I just signed the petition "I want to make sure my daughter will be able to
protect herself - so will your daughter and son. Will you help me?" and
wanted to see if you could help by adding your name.

Our goal is to reach 111,455 signatures and we need more support. You can
read more and sign the petition here:
