Measure proposes new Child Safety and Custody Compliance Act
Sen. Ana Maria Rodriguez
A Miami Republican is proposing a “Child Safety and Custody Compliance Act,” that would make it a crime for child welfare investigators to “willfully” fail to do their jobs.
SB 60 by Sen. Ana Maria Rodriguez, a trade association vice president, defines the duties of child protection team investigators to include the investigation of reports of child abuse, abandonment, or neglect “and the verification of parenting plans or court-ordered custody arrangements.”
