Thanks to First Spouses in a growing number of states, Americans are learning the value of ‘Texting First. Talking Second’ during emergencies.

The ‘Text First. Talk Second.’ message is being promoted via news conferences, TV PSAs and news releases in Alabama, Arkansas, Delaware, Puerto Rico and soon in additional states in the Northeast.

The Medical Reserve Corps is pledging its involvement in Safe America’s ‘March to 2 Million’ preparedness campaign.

MRC officials say they hope to see several hundred thousand doctors, nurses and other personnel involved this fall in promoting emergency readiness… In all 50 states.

We salute the MRC for its efforts…and will keep you posted on its activities in support of the BE Safe America campaign.
