Baby Cooper’s Law

On June 18th 2014 Cooper Harris was left in the car to die. Cooper Harris died from hyperthermia, a condition in which the temperature of the body spikes due to the heat.
Too many children have died or almost died from being left unattended in a vehicle. Some states do not have a law in affected regarding leaving children in vehicles.
We hereby ask that Baby Cooper’s Law will make it illegal to leave a child in any vehicle at any time in all states. Currently only 19 states in the US have laws that specifically make it illegal to leave a child unattended in a vehicle.
