  • Mandatory Treatment versus Prosecution for First Time Non-violent Sex Offenses
    I am the Dakota RSOL State Affiliate Organizer and have heard so many sad stories regarding the lack of confidential preventitive treatment and the division of so many families due to our current sex offender laws. As a teacher, I feel I let a student down because she choose to endure the abuse rather than share and have her abuser go to prison and the family be divided. We must demand treatment versus punishment to encourage children to report to STOP the abuse, provide resources, and CURE this epidemic.

  • Stop Gun Violence with a Nationwide Gun Reform Policy
    Due to recent events at Sandy Brook Elementary school, the shooting at the movie theatre in Aurora, Colorado, and the shooting in Arizona where Congress woman Gabby Gifford and many other innocent people were brutally shot and some murdered this country has got to make a change. While some states may have strict laws on purchasing firearms there are those who are not meeting the standard to protect American citizens. By incorporating a nationwide gun policy the people of America will find it safer to walk down the street, send their children to school, and visit their local grocery store.

I ASKED state legislator who talked to other elected officials in 2006 to 2010 to get state police to patrol the mon valley streets ,nothing happened. mon valley has a avg of 19 black on black deaths each year with a 5% close rate. THE police and community need help from the State Legislators and governor that have state police sitting in state police cars just 8 to 10 miles away from these high crime areas.

  • 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.
