Iryna's Law

---

Mary's Voice is in full support of Logan's Law being enacted on a federal level. Mary's grandmother sat beside Logan's father and witnessed his agony as he testified at the Judiciary oversight hearing in Charlotte NC. We stand with him in the fight for justice and accountability. Most of all the safety of all of our children. This law would strengthen the safety of our citizens and for us, it would guarantee that the four murderers who kidnapped tortured and brutally and sadistically murdered Mary will not be able to hide in the darkness where they are most comfortable but will be exposed for what they are.
