After a delay several weeks ago due to severe weather, Missouri Governor Matt Blunt signed Senate Bill 818 into law yesterday in the neighborhood where once Megan Meier lived. 

Cyberbullying is no longer tolerated in the great state of Missouri.   The act amends the existing harassment laws and now includes electronic harassment.

The new law also requires Missouri school boards to implement a written policy requiring the administration to report crimes of harassment and stalking to law enforcement officials if the incidents occur on school grounds.  Electronic harassment is included.

Megan's mother, Tina Meier, was present at the signing and has been instrumental in getting this bill passed.  Congrats, Tina!
