Veto HB 212
The NAACP finds this bill in violation of ones Civil Rights. We need to stop it now.
Why is this important?
Sign our petition immediately and share with others. The NAACP opposes this bill as it violates the Civil Rights of United States Citizens. The NAACP opposes collecting DNA prior to a conviction. This bill provides that law enforcement agencies may collect DNA samples at the time of booking for any person arrested for any felony offense beginning May 13, 2014 through December 31, 2014; and on and after January 1, 2015, requires law enforcement agencies to collect DNA samples at the time of booking for any person arrested for any felony offense.
