SENATE & ASSEMBLY REPUBLICANS UNVEIL PLAN TO CREATE A SAFER NY

“There is nothing just or fair about refusing to fix a bad law because you believe it’s bad politics. Crime victims, law enforcement officials, and Democrats in other states who worked to reform their bail practices all know that judicial discretion is sound policy. We need to restore it. We need to provide our police officers with the resources they need to do their jobs, and we need to expand funding for mental health and drug treatment programs so more New Yorkers can turn their lives around before they cause harm to innocent people,” said Senator Jake Ashby, SD 43rd.
