Read News: Crack cocaine disparity prioritized in President-elect Barack Obama?s transition agenda

By The Sentencing Project

ADVERTISEMENTS
President-elect Barack Obama Wednesday unveiled a new Web site, www.change.gov, which highlights the incoming administration's policy priorities. Among the top civil rights priorities will be the complete elimination of crack cocaine sentencing disparities. Additional agenda items include ending racial profiling, reducing recidivism by providing reentry support, and expanding the use of drug courts. The site states: “Obama and Biden will give first-time, non-violent offenders a chance to serve their sentence, where appropriate, in the type of drug rehabilitation programs that have proven to work better than a prison term in changing bad behavior.” Posted Date:11/6/2008 9:53:37 PM
