UNIFORM NATIONAL CURFEW FOR KIDS YOUNGER THAN 18 PUSHED IN CONGRESS

We see nearly every day and night on television news the CCTV footages of children and teenagers figuring in gang wars, petty theft, street crimes, and violent skirmishes.

House Bill 7110 seeks to mandate and strictly implement a set of hours during night time within which minors are prohibited from remaining outside of the home, not only as a means of maintaining public order and safety and preventing the further rise in criminality, but also in order to protect minors from potential threat that may arise in the remote environment which may be harmful or detrimental to their development.

We filed this bill because of the increasingly alarming number of children who have gone missing for over 24 hours, children that are abused by syndicates and unscrupulous individuals, as well as have been involved in crimes concerning abduction, rape, abuse, and theft, murder, among others.

HB 7110 seeks to protect children below the age of 18 because they are vulnerable to abuse leading to exploitation, drug addiction, and the commission of criminal acts, as well as also being at the risk of committing criminal offenses themselves.

The Quezon City Ordinance which the Supreme Court upheld as constitutional on August 8, 2017 is the template of this bill. https://goo.gl/eKSJJB  (END)

John 3:16-18 ESV
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son (Jesus Christ), that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God.
