As I look at the group sponsoring this bill I seem to see a lot of folks from States and Districts that have a BIIIIIG Drug problem. The ACLU, NAACP, Black Police Association , La Raza. The same folks who's constituents have a large p[opulation of folks in jail for drug dealing. It looks kind of like a bill to keep drug dealers out of jail. Now I am not in favor of innocent people being railroaded into jail by false testimony but I also feel maybe they are throwing out the baby with the bathwater.
