U.S. plans ‘Silver Alert’ to find missing seniors | The Raw Story

Most excellent!! But how much are you willing to wager that the Reich will bury this,,,

Capitalizing on the success of urgent “Amber Alert” bulletins that help authorities find missing children, US lawmakers introduced a similar program for the elderly Tuesday that they hope to implement across America.

If passed by Congress, the legislation sponsored by six US Senate Democrats would create a “Silver Alert” aimed at helping locate missing senior citizens suffering from conditions such as dementia.

The system is already in place in a handful of states, but lawmakers like Senator John Rockefeller of West Virginia want to take the program nationwide.

“The Silver Alert, which is modeled after a successful West Virginia program, has the potential to greatly improve the way we locate missing adults and seniors by allowing for coordination and support across jurisdictions,” Rockefeller said in a statement.
