Sample Letters to Governor Baker
SAMPLE LETTER 1 |
<YOUR NAME>
<ADDRESS> <DATE> Massachusetts State House Office of the Governor Room 105 Boston, MA 02133 Governor Baker: I hope that you will provide guidance to those you've appointed on the Parole Board to use the best judgement on each case regarding the SJC ruling to grant parole to juvenile murderers. It is all about balance and the intent of the ruling is not to unilaterally protect those who were issued life-without parole but to also address victim rights. Sincerely, <name> <day phone> <night phone> <email> |
SAMPLE LETTER 2 |
<YOUR NAME>
<ADDRESS> <DATE> Massachusetts State House Office of the Governor Room 105 Boston, MA 02133 Governor Baker: Our state has lead the nation in Victim's Rights and I hope you will continue to be an advocate for justice. The ruling of the SJC regarding granting parole hearings to convicted juveniles years after they have committed their crimes is certainly a challenge. I hope you can find ways to lead our great state to comply to the law but without reversing the tremendous gains we've made to protect the victim's families. Sincerely, <name> <day phone> <night phone> <email> |
