Update on Food Allergy Bill in PA

Here's the latest on HB 1148. According to my contact at PA State Representative Thomas Murt's District Office,

"HB 1148 was tabled because several Education Committee members were concerned about the wording on the the bill and it's impact on existing laws. The bill was tabled to allow for further research and clarification. We are working with the Harrisburg legislation unit to resolve the concerns. We may have a vote as soon as July 1."

I just sent a response asking if they needed any help from families who deal with food allergies every day. I believe in the power of the moms and dads who know what kind of help they need when trying to manage their child's food allergies in a school setting.

I'll keep you posted if there are ways we can help.
