  • Support SB 1913: Help Texans Resolve Their Tickets Without
    Support S.B. 1913: Help Texans resolve their tickets without destroying their livelihoods Low-income people throughout Texas become trapped in a cycle of poverty when they cannot afford to pay traffic tickets and other citations. They lose their driver licenses for not paying, then get more tickets for driving without a license, which they often must do to earn a living. Eventually, they receive arrest warrants and can end up in jail for days, weeks, or even months. While in jail, they lose their jobs and housing and are driven even deeper into poverty. S.B. 1913 (Zaffirini) would provide judges with new tools that still hold people accountable while avoiding this counterproductive cycle. The bill embodies the 2016 consensus recommendations of the Texas Judicial Council, chaired by Texas Supreme Court Chief Justice Nathan L. Hecht and vice chaired by Texas Court of Criminal Appeals Presiding Judge Sharon Keller.1 It would improve court processes by doing the following: • Notifying people about alternatives to full payment and expanding community service options: S.B. 1913 would require courts to notify people about their options for alternatives to full payment if they are unable to pay their tickets. It would also expand community service options in criminal cases, allowing people to work off their fines and costs at schools and churches, or through court- ordered job skills training or GED prep classes. • Allowing judges the discretion to create individualized sentences: People often leave court owing amounts that they will never be able to pay because judges never ask what they can afford.

Hecht Chief Justice The Supreme Court of Texas Chamber of the Texas House of Representatives — February 6, 2019 Lieutenant Governor Patrick, Speaker Bonnen, Members of the 86th Legislature, Members of the Judiciary, distinguished guests, ladies and gentlemen: As Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Texas, and its longest-serving Member in Texas history, this is my third occasion to report to you on the state of the Texas Judiciary. On a Friday afternoon, Pam Heard, Aransas County District Clerk for more than 16 years, worked feverishly with her seven deputies to cover their computers with plastic as Hurricane Harvey bore down on Rockport. That evening, August 25, 2017, when the eye made landfall five miles away, Harvey was a Category 4 storm with 132-mph winds driving rains of two feet a day. Anticipating the worst, District Judge Janna Whatley, who serves Aransas and four other counties, had worked with other judges to designate essential personnel, but the storm knocked out communication, including most cellular service.

The new law bans the use of shackles on women at all stages of pregnancy and for eight weeks post-partum, building upon a 2009 law that banned the use of restraints on women during childbirth. Prior to the law’s enactment, New York state prisons and jails routinely shackled women throughout their pregnancy and during the post-partum period. Two of the most common situations involving shackling are trips for medical appointments, which can happen weekly as a pregnant woman nears her due date, and trips between prisons, which can take more than 10 hours. Shackling causes pregnant women physical and psychological pain. It heightens the risk of blood clots, limits the mobility needed for a safe pregnancy and delivery, and increases the risk of falling, which can cause serious injury and even death to the fetus.
