Monthly Public Affairs
Viewpoint- Criminal Justice Reform
Special | 10m 56sVideo has Closed Captions
We discuss legislation before Congress that looks to reform the criminal justice system.
In recent remarks by then presidential hopeful Rand Paul, the senator pointed out an inequity that exists in our country's sentencing laws. African Americans and other minorities are incarcerated at grossly different rates than whites - though in some cases, they commit the same crimes at the same rates. We discuss legislation currently before Congress that looks to help bring reform.
