Local News and Announcements... Don't miss anything...please scroll downMADP Legislative UpdateMADP Legislative Update Several new bills have recently been introduced in the Missouri General Assembly. You'll find short summaries below but more information including email addresses (to thank the various legislators) is available at the website for the Eastern Missouri Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty. 1. House Bill (HB) 516, a measure to abolish the death penalty in Missouri, we are delighted to announce, was introduced by Rep. Rodney Hubbard (D-St. Louis, District 58) and co-sponsored by 21 other Democratic representatives. 2. House Bill (HB) 408 was filed by Rep. Sherman Parker (R-St. Peters) to establish a commission to analyze various aspects of the death penalty in Missouri while consequently putting in place a three-year moratorium on executions in the state. Seven GOP and seven Democratic lawmakers agreed to co-sponsor the legislation. 3. Senate Bill (SB) 303, a moratorium bill,-- identical to HB 408-- was filed late in the day by Sen. Pat Dougherty (D-St. Louis). Five other Democratic senators joined on as co-sponsors of the bill. We were unsuccessful at enlisting Republican lawmakers to come on board. No committee hearings have yet been scheduled for any of these bills. We will update you as developments occur. Thank you in advance for taking actions to acknowledge the efforts of the above noted lawmakers. Looking forward to working with you on advancing this cause during the coming legislative session. 0 Comments (perma-link) Email this:
