"FACTS" stands for "Families To Amend California's Three Strikes Law"
To: Assembly Speaker Fabian Núñez We, the undersigned, are outraged that the Governor and legislative leaders, behind closed doors, committed us, the taxpayers to over $7 billion - $15 Billion including debt service - to expand California's out-of-control prison system. Both houses of the Legislature "suspended the Constitution" to vote on AB 900 with no advanced notice, no public hearings, or even any actual language in print prior to the vote. We are appalled that this failed system will now be expanded by 53,000 more beds, (40,000 in state prisons and 13,000 in county jails). We question whether representative government exists in California at all. Initiated By:Families to Amend California's Three Strikes, FACTS Sign on to Petition at http://facts1.live.radicaldesigns.org/petition.php?pid=1 Mission Statement Mission Statement Our major purpose is to amend the 3-Strikes law in California so it is only applicable to violent felonies. Nearly 75% of 2nd and 50% of 3rd strikes within California are for non-violent offenses.
