This is the latest in a series of posts I have done criticizing Nebraska’s legalized child abandonment laws. You can find my earlier posts via my Nebraska tag.

Hi,
I’ve been actively following the safe haven updates on your blog for some time now- thanks so much for all your work! I’ve been doing a lot of research on the topic and am now desperately trying to find footage of the special legislative session. (I live in New York, so unfortunately, was not able to attend the sessions myself.) Do you know if there is any footage of the sessions available online or if there are any individuals who filmed the sessions that may be interested in sharing their footage? You seem to be the expert on this, so please let me know if you have any ideas on places to look or people to contact.
Thank you so much and please keep on posting!
