Hello All,
This is a reminder that we are meeting tonight at MACG to plan our May 9th Lobby Day. This is especially important for Prison & Community Action Team members. The health care and driver’s license issues have been or will probably have been addressed by then. So the focus of the day will be on sentencing reform for MACG. The bill, 3194, wasn’t subject to last week’s deadline because it is from a joint committee. The committee’s staff counsel told me that a ballpark date for a vote is June 1st. So tonight we will be working on our issue only with a view toward going to Salem. It’s an important meeting for you to attend if at all possible.
