    And while this was going on at the Capitol…I was blogging with Mothers Around the World and the UN….We sent this message to
    President Obama: Every Mother Deserves the Right to Defend Her Own Live and the Lives of Her Children From Domestic Abuse…Without Blame and Without Punishment….I’ve been keeping the President informed of what is going on here in California.
