The guide walks you through the steps for writing your public comment to tell the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to ban the use of electric skin shock devices. See the email below to learn more about this resource. When you’re ready to submit it, you can use our super simple form to send your comment directly to the FDA without having to navigate a confusing government website. Thank you for helping us #StopTheShock! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Autistic Self Advocacy Network <[email protected]> Date: 4/18/2024 Subject: New Plain Language Resource from ASAN! We have an exciting new plain language resource to share with you! As you may have seen in our recent Action Alert, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has released a proposed rule to ban the use of electric skin shock devices for behavior modification. The Judge Rotenberg Center (JRC), an institution in Massachusetts, uses these devices on some of the people that live there. People get painfully shocked for things like swearing, standing up, hurting themselves, and much more. The FDA is asking for people to comment on the proposed rule, so we made a Plain Language Guide to show you how to write your comment! The guide gives you examples of things you can say in your comment and tells you the most important things to include. Even if you’ve never written a public comment before, the guide will show you how. Make sure to check out and share the Plain Language Guide. Thank you for taking action to stop the JRC from using these inhumane devices on disabled people!
