SB 119 - Currently, children under the age of seven years old are required to wear a personal flotation device when on board any watercraft on the waters of Missouri. This act names the provision "Hannah's Law" and raises the age until which a child is required to wear a personal flotation device to twelve. This act also requires a child who is wading or swimming in navigable public waters more than three feet in depth to wear a personal flotation device. This act exempts children from the personal flotation device requirement if supervised by a lifeguard. This act is similar to HB 2341 (2018), SB 324 (2017), SB 616 (2016), SB 483 (2015), similar to HB 440 (2011). ERIC VANDER WEERD
