We need to take URGENT action to #StopTheShock! Right now, we're waiting for the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to ban the electric skin shock devices used at the Judge Rotenberg Center. But some members of Congress are trying to take away the FDA's power to make that rule. They are sneaking new language into a funding bill. This language would stop the FDA from banning devices that a court says are okay to use. A court has already approved all of the electric shock devices used by the Judge Rotenberg Center. That means that this bill text would stop the FDA from banning these devices.

Thank you for taking action to #StopTheShock!
