H. CON. RES. 72 ~ Child Safety in Family Courts
After years of collaborative national work to bring this to fruition, and because of the dogged persistence of our close allies Connie Valentine and Joan Meier, we now have a Child Safety Resolution in the United States Congress. Check out the press release about H. Con. Res. 72, our bipartisan Child Safety Resolution from Rep. Patrick Meehan (R-PA) and Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY). CJE's child murder data has been a huge driver in generating bipartisan support for this resolution.
Now is the time to act. August 2017.
Please contact your Member of Congress during the August recess, schedule an in-person meeting with their District staff, and urge them to add their name to the growing list of Dem and Rep co-sponsors. Contact the Center for Judicial Excellence for talking points next week.
Mon. Aug. 14th ~ Hearing on CJP v. Auditor Lawsuit
The San Francisco Superior Court has finally set a hearing date in the CJP's lawsuit against California State Auditor Elaine Howle, an attempt to block her from doing her job and protecting the public. As a reminder, CJE co-led the effort one year ago to get a unanimous vote in the state legislature to audit the state’s only judicial oversight agency, the Commission on Judicial Performance (CJP). The CJP responded by suing the state auditor. The audit has been stalled ever since.
