The League of Women Voters’ position that all citizens have a right to equal treatment under the law and the criminal justice system faces a daunting reality. The League of Women Voters of Greater Tucson (LWVGT) is examining the exploding financial costs and profound, multi-generational social cost of recently enacted Arizona laws that have led to mass incarceration, increasingly of nonviolent offenders, those with mental illness and the poor.

This extremely informative program on how Arizona's criminal justice system can be fixed will be our January Voter Education Program.
