DOC - ESSB 5288 Amended, Passed out of House Human Services Committee

The bill reducing supervision to 12,000 dangerous criminals that cuts hundreds of Community Corrections jobs, passed the House Human Services Committee Thursday. ESSB 5288 was amended, but we believe on balance it’s still a bad bill. Continue calls to 1-800-562-6000 to urge legislators to oppose ESSB 5288.

Read more here about the background of the bill and the calls to action.

Senate bill 5288 a bad bill?! Well, why don't you propose a more balanced budget to legislature and introduce your expertise on economics to the fellow tax payers who've been helping pay your salary. I'm sick of the political mentality where EVERYTHING is just a pilot and think our government had better start making more grounded decisions toward a real, more solid future for everyone, which is one of the things I believe this bill does.
