Shurtleff to testify on hate-crimes bill
Shurtleff is testifying before the House Judiciary Committee in favor of HR 1592, which helps authorities seek U.S. Justice Department assistance in prosecuting bias crimes. The measure removes a roadblock in getting federal prosecution of hate crimes.
The act would remove a prosecution requirement that a hate-crime victim was attacked while participating in a federally protected activity such as voting or jury duty.
