ACR 53, the Kelly Martinez Act, passed out of the Senate Floor and will be soon enrolled and chaptered. Senator Carol Liu presented it and it received unanimous AYE vote!

Kelly Martinez’ husband, Raul, has spoken at legislative hearings for the past two years, and has helped a great deal to have this and our previous perinatal depression bill pass. We received the following message from Raul:

“Thank you all so much for your efforts. Words can’t describe how much this means to our family. Thank you. Raul”

Thank you to everyone for your efforts in supporting the passage of ACR53– another success in addressing the needs of people who may suffer from perinatal depression.
