Support House Bill 148 and End the Death Penalty for Those with Severe Mental Illness

Act Now

The death penalty is not justice, and the government should never have the authority to end a person's life, especially when that person is not able to fully understand the circumstances.

Subject

Senate Bill 148 would ban the use of the death penalty against people who have severe mental illness. The death penalty should be entirely abolished because the government should never have the authority to end a person's life. This bill is a small step in the right direction.

Message Body

Please vote to yes on SB148 and put a stop to the death penalty for the severely mentally ill.

Sincerely,

[First Name] [Last Name]

ABOUT HONORIFIC TITLES

Many public officials use "web mail forms" that this system will send your message to, so you don't have to visit their web sites to communicate with them. The systems that some of these officials use requires that the honorific field be used (Mr., Mrs., Miss, etc.).

Unfortunately, we do not have control of which honorific titles are presented as options. We must adhere to what the officials are using in order for your message to be delivered.

Alternate Salutation

Most elected officials’ constituent email systems accept a very limited set of salutations. Please select the one you would most prefer.
