HB 1840, amended and poised for the governor’s signature this Tuesday, will empower communities to help locate vulnerable loved ones faster. Spearheaded by Danielle Rocha, whose non-verbal autistic twins inspired the initiative, and championed by Rep. Sherri Gallick, the bill prioritizes the most at-risk populations. With a ceremonial signing planned for later and full rollout expected in late August, this life-saving tool proves how one voice can spark systemic change.
