The Blackstonian joined over 40 members of EPOCA at the MA State House to lobby Legislators who are members of the Conference Committee currently reviewing the Habitual Offender Bill aka 3 Strikes Law (S. 2059/H. 3811) in its final step before heading to the Office of Gov. Deval Patrick for passage into law. If passed, this law will have a devastating impact on communities of color across the Commonwealth. Stay tuned to the Blackstonian for updates on the progress of these bills and for community actions and how you can get involved. Save the Date! Sat.
