This morning, two important pieces of legislation - Senate Joint Resolution 10 and Senate Joint Memorial 2 - will have a public hearing before the Senate Committee On Judiciary and Ballot Measure 110 Implementation. The DPLC has passed a resolution in support of both of these bills, and we encourage you to support them as well, either by tuning in to the virtual hearing or emailing your elected officials.
