		<description><![CDATA[This post is an experiment using the Federal Bill Tracker at <a href="http://www.govtrack.us">www.govtrack.us</a>.  It calls for postings to be made in the head and body or the page, but since we only have control over the body (heysf.org uses Wordpress posts) I just put in a head and body artificially.  It doesn't seem to be working all that well, but as activity occurs, perhaps we'll see something new happen.  So this is the tracker for all federal reports, speeches and events having to do with 'child safety and welfare'.  Let's see if it works.
