The First Step Act

The House by an overwhelming 360-59 vote passed a bipartisan reform bill Tuesday that provides more education for federal prisoners and gives them a second chance after their release. The bill would also boost current inmates' chances for a GED, vocational and college courses as well as substance abuse and mental health help. Kevin Ring, President of Families Against Mandatory Minimums (FAMM) and author of Scalia Dissents: Writings of the Supreme Court's Wittiest, Most Outspoken Justice, will join me to discuss the bill. The Boy Scouts have been on a downward spiral for a while now. The most recent decisions to change their name, allow girls into the Boy Scouts, and now their latest involving their World Conference. Cody Stockton, local Pack Master will join me to talk about the changes and the challenges of being a Scout leader now. Don't forget about the Edwards Notebook and the Veteran's Tip of the Day! All of this and more as time allows. Listen live, join the chatroom, be a part of the show Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/tapp-into-the-truth--556114/support.
