Its national family week
Nov 23rd, 2009 by David Anderson
The President has proclaimed this national family week. I applaud the sentiment behind the proclamation.
I wish some substance would be added to it. Families are often not even an afterthought in policy making. Why not have a family impact statement be required before any new regulations go into effect or we sign on to any UN Conventions. It would take only the stroke of pen. The same pen used to praise families could be used to protect them.
