Earlier this Spring, the New Hampshire state legislature voted to abolish the death penalty, which would make NH the 20th state to put an end to capital punishment. Currently, the bill is waiting on Governor Chris Sununu's signature.
At the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty (NCADP), I am working with the 90 Million Strong Campaign, which is currently focusing its efforts in Nebraska, to prepare for a ballot initiative being voted on in November.
“Death penalty repeal bill fails.” That was roughly the headline in the Delaware News Journal the morning of January 29 after a long, powerful, and exhausting debate the day before.
