With the presidential campaign in full swing, we tend to ignore what’s happening on Capitol Hill. But pay attention please. A piece of legislation that would empty the prisons may come up for a vote. It would release thousands of criminals back on the streets at a time of rising crime rates, in the name of reducing what liberals call “mass incarceration.” So please read my new column about what the politicians are calling the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act of 2015, or (S.2123). Then, consider contacting your Senator.
Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning calls the plan a “risky mass criminal release scheme” that comes at a time when “police are overwhelmed with record murders in cities like Baltimore and Chicago.” We’ll be discussing this topic Wednesday night on America’s Survival TV.
