LEGISLATIVE PETITION

Equal Parenting Petition Drive 2004
The petition drive for an election ballot question on Equal Parenting was launched in 2003. Dads and Moms PAC had 5 goals for the petition drive and 4 of the 5 goals were achieved. The ballot petition drive did not raise enough signatures. The key documents can be found here.

Shared Parenting Ballot Initiative 2010
Dads and Moms PAC is supporting the state wide effort for a ballot initiative for Shared Parenting in 2010. Although this is a big task, the use of electronic and social networks provide options that were not available in 2004, the last year this was attempted. We also hope that this will generate a lot of discussion about the benefits of parent involvement in their children’s lives despite divorce and custody. Download the ballot and instructions and start helping today. Email info@dadsmomspac.org to get involved.
