You Can Save This Baby

Of the over 100 babies who are abandoned each year in Texas, about 16 will be found dead. An unknown number of murdered babies are never found. There is a solution. A Texas law provides a responsible alternative to mothers who might otherwise abandon, harm or murder a newborn child. It states that a parent may leave an unharmed infant, up to 60 days old, at any hospital or fire station with “no questions asked.” This law is nicknamed "The Baby Moses Law" from the ancient story of baby Moses who was placed in a wicker basket by his mother to be saved from death and who then grew up to become an important person in history.

The Cisco Fire Department has entered into an agreement with "Baby Moses Dallas" and has posted signs at the fire department.
