  • Mandatory prison sentences for Bankers laundering illegal drug money
    Wells Fargo was fined for laundering profits from illegal drug money laundering but no one went to jail. We have huge numbers of people in prison for selling small amounts of drugs yet the bankers actions helped untold amounts of drugs be sold on our streets. A fine for the bankers is a slap on the wrist and can be written off as a "cost of doing business" expense. A mandatory prison sentence may make them take this issue a little more seriously!

  • Gov. Beshear: Amend KY's Expungement Statutes
    In today's struggling economy, we all know how challenging it is to gain employment, even more so if your criminal background check does not return spotless to HR. KRS 431.078 has made it increasingly difficult for citizens to expunge misdemeanor charges by increasing processing fees and prohibiting the expungement of a misdemeanor even if you only have minor traffic violations 5 years prior to or anytime after the conviction sought to have expunged.

  • Amendd IC 35-42-3.5
    This law needs to be re-examined. First, the statue of limitations is two years for victims to seek retribution. There should be no statute of limitations. Secondly, victims of human trafficking should not have a felony on their record, a fact the state of Michigan has just supported. Felons will not be able to get a well-paying job and will have no choice but to go back to their pimp and face unspeakable punishment/s from him/her.

  • Ban Cell phones while driving
    Study after study has demonstrated that talking on a cell phone while driving is dangerous. This practice should be banned. It would also make it easier to enforce the no texting law if any cell phone use while driving is illegal.
