ABATE – Call to Action in support of the Grieving Families Act.
Click HERE to Support New York Bill S8485b/A9232b – the Grieving Families Act!
Details from the ABATE of New York Position Paper:
A9232/S8485 – Provides for the types of damages that may be awarded to the persons for whose benefit an action for wrongful death is brought. The Grieving Families Act helps ensure justice for the families of those who are wrongfully killed by the acts of others, including riders killed by negligent drivers. This important legislation provides surviving families the ability to seek fair compensation for their pain and suffering, addressing the emotional and financial hardships that come with such a devastating loss. By expanding the definition of “family” to include not only traditional relatives but also those who have close, dependent relationships with the deceased, the Grieving Families Act recognizes the wide-ranging impact of such tragedies. This bill is crucial for holding negligent drivers accountable and providing much-needed support to those left behind.
