CNN International (10/17, LeBlanc) reported that on Saturday, President Trump signed into law “the National Suicide Hotline Designation Act,” a “bipartisan bill that will make 9-8-8 the universal telephone number to reach the national suicide prevention hotline starting in 2022.” The bill, “which passed the House of Representatives last month after approval from the Senate and the Federal Communications Commission, will allow individuals seeking help to dial the three-digit number and be directed to the hotline.”
