Omnibus Reentry Bill

SB 5070, the state omnibus reentry bill to salvage lives and reduce 
recidivism for the benefit of offenders, their families, and our 
communities, is in the House awaiting floor action before tomorrow’s cutoff 
deadline.

Please urge your representatives to help bring this important bill to a 
vote, and to only support amendments that will mitigate unnecessarily harsh 
sanctions and make the provision of needed housing and other services more 
efficient.

If you would like to see a copy of the bill, go to www.leg.wa.gov and click 
on bills. You will also find your representative’s phone number and email 
address at this same web page.

Thank you for assisting in this critical effort, which is a key criminal 
justice element in FCWPP’s 2007 legislative program.
