                 Prisoners are released into YOUR neighborhood?

How many dangerous criminals will be on the loose in your neighborhood?

Right now, a panel of three federal judges is considering imposing a cap on the total number of prisoners that may be housed in California’s prisons.

Imposing a cap could lead to the early release of as many as 40,000 inmates, including dangerous felons who are serving time for serious crimes. Find out how many criminals could be released back into your county.

To keep California’s families and communities safe, Republicans in the California State Assembly are taking action to prevent a cap on our prison population. Assembly Republicans will appear before the federal judges to defend the integrity of California’s public safety laws and keep criminals behind bars where they belong.
