TADP Justice Day on the Hill Takes Message of Repeal to Lawmakers

Yesterday citizens from across the state took to the halls of the Tennessee legislature, speaking to lawmakers about why the death penalty in Tennessee should be repealed.  Participants included family members of murder victims as well as Paul House, released from Tennessee’s death after 23 years for a crime new evidence indicates he didn’t commit.  (Pictured above)

Participants also heard from Senator Beverly Marrero, sponsor of the legislation, as well as Representative Jeanne Richardson about the importance of the work for repeal and the impact of face-to-face meetings on legislators.  Senator Marrero and Representative Richardson encouraged participants to keep raising awareness and having the conversations with lawmakers as they believe, as we do, that Tennessee will eventually follow the lead of states like New Jersey, New Mexico, and most recently Illinois in repealing the death penalty.   

Twenty legislators received visits from participants, some for the first time, and each and every visit produced instructive dialogue and good questions. Members of both the House and Senate Judiciary Committees (the Committees through which the bill must ultimately pass) also received visits and were appreciative of the information and discussion. 

Even though we are in this for the long haul in Tennessee, these visits make a real impact, with participants seeing the effects of their conversations from year to year as more legislators learn about the system’s problems. TADP is already thinking about next year’s Justice Day and how to get more citizens involved.  Stay tuned for Justice Day 2012!
