Criminal Justice

Our Values

We believe that authorities, communities, and individuals must work together to prevent crime and to make our communities livable.  We have a collective responsibility to help alleviate social conditions that lead to crime.

We believe that all people should have equal access to the criminal justice system and should be treated equally under the law.

2010 Policy Priorities

• The decriminalization and regulation of marijuana
• End the death penalty in Washington State
• A re-affirmation that the United States has signed the Geneva Conventions and that any violation constitutes a breach of US law
