2011 Legislative session

 Its a quiet year in legislature... so far.

Below is a list of 2011 Legislative Bills as of today, March 10, 2011:

HB 23: Allows expungement of records under certain circumstances
Our Stance: Support, though more expungement opportunities for those on the public registry who are arrested but acquitted or have charges dismissed.

HB 51: Increases penalty for third indecent exposure from a Class A misdemeanor to a Class C felony
Our Stance: I'm hesitant to agree with this one because Indecent Exposure is a broad definition. Also, to make a non-contact offense the same penalty as a contact offense seems asinine.
