Rep. V. Lowry Snow (R)

 

HB 239 (Juvenile Justice Amendments)

Libertas Institute supports this bill.

This bill incorporates many changes proposed as part of a comprehensive review of the juvenile justice system with many different stakeholders. There are multiple benefits to the proposals, including make clear that juveniles guilty of status offenses (for example, school truancy) should not end up in juvenile detention.

Libertas Institute supports this bill. Without much oversight the number of laws, and the method of their enforcement, has led to many injustices in the "justice" system. This legislation helps move the system in a better direction.
