Understandable, but i don't think an a la' carte breakdown will speak to whatever priorities or interests you have on the subject - best to seek thoss points on your own. My intent here was not to debate or talking point the bill itself but rather note the political implications of the bill with a secondary mention of its impact on society.

Except that you created a thread about this same legislation weeks ago and in doing so chose a partisan slant that also exposed your ignorance on the history of this legislation. So much for your supposed level of attention, either then or now.

At least it was good to have Kushner’s personal family experience with lawbreaking and imprisonment, as well as any possible future threat of the same to the current bunch in Washington, lend a greater sense of urgency to anything associated with ‘prison reform’. ; )

Yeah, except this thread is about another topic.

I guess that your memory is failing you as well as your comprehension.

Check it....Kushner is spelled differently than Trump. Maybe you don't remember spelling?

Don't forget the unparalleled job Trump has done in draining the swamp and bringing honest integrity to Washington. :twisted:

Checked. Maybe you don’t remember the topic title of your own thread here?

Unless you want to pretend that your topic was specific to Kushner receiving accolades, although you sort of ruined that sidestep earlier when you mentioned the following:

... paying a stripper ...
... it impacts actual lives ...
... The bipartisan support, the endorsement from Spartacus, and the glaring need in our society for a President and Legislature to take this action ...
... My intent here was (to) note the political implications of the bill ...
Is the thread title and question(s) too vague? or ambiguous? The Criminal Juatice Reform Bill has been on most everyone's radar, correct?

Maybe you can try to retain just enough of your failing memory to at least remember the last of those quotes? ; )

And Trump is also pulling troops out of Syria! I give Trump credit where credit is due.
Can you say something nice about Obama?

If I understand Sub correctly, #winning, is passing a watered down criminal justice reform bill two years after a stronger, but already watered down criminal justice reform bill was ready to pass, but was killed by the Trump admin. Is that it?

Did you forget to praise Mr. Trump for raising your chocolate rations too?
