IMPROVE/ UPDATE THE CURRENT POOL FENCE LAWS

FATAL DROWNING REMAINS THE 2ND LEADING CAUSE OF UNINTENTIONAL INJURY RELATED DEATH FOR CHILDREN AGES 1 TO 14 YEARS.

ARIZONA LAW ONLY REQUIRES A POOL FENCE IF "YOU HAVE" CHILDREN 6 AND UNDER LIVING IN YOUR HOME, BUT DOES NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT THE DANGER A POOL PRESENTS TO "EVERYONE & EVERY CHILD", REGARDLESS OF AGE OR THEIR RELATION TO THE POOL OWNER.

ARIZONA LAWS ON THIS MATTER NEED TO BE UPDATED TO REFLECT THE STATISTICS.

WITH YOUR HELP, WE WANT TO HAVE THE LAW CHANGED TO "EVERY POOL - A FENCE", AS WELL AS IMPROVED ENFORCEMENT OF THE POOL FENCE LAWS.
