MCADP
has been successful at keeping the Death Penalty out of Massachusetts,
but as recently as 1997 the issue came down to one tie-breaking vote!
There is also a persistent effort by federal prosecutors to bring
death penalty cases to trial in non-death penalty states. In the current
political climate, things are not going to get easier — we need
to be active!
