Why abolish the death penalty in Kentucky?
It's costly.
It's out of step with modern thinking.
It's risky.
It's unfair, broken, and arbitrary.
It's unnecessary.
Victims' families deserve better.
Please leave a message for your state representative at 800-372-7181 (you can look them up here) urging him or her to support SB 63 to abolish Kentucky's death penalty and HB 145 to end the death penalty for people with severe mental illness.
