Speaking Out Against Nebraska's Death Penalty The recent unveiling of the new execution chamber in Lincoln has generated a lot of discussion about our state's death penalty system. We would like to highlight a few of those commentaries here, and we call on each of you to raise your voice in continued opposition to capital punishment in Nebraska. On July 23rd Bishop William J. Dendinger authored an article in the Western Nebraska Register. The paper is published by the Grand Island Diocese of the Catholic Church and is widely circulated throughout Western Nebraska. We welcome Bishop Dendinger's thoughtful analysis of the death penalty in Nebraska. Read the article in its entirety here. In the past we have seen many newspapers in Nebraska call for repeal of our state's death penalty. Earlier this week the Lincoln Journal Star reaffirmed its position in opposition to the state's latest announcement regarding the completed construction of the new execution chamber. The editorial offers a grim reminder that Nebraska's officials are preparing "to take a person's life in the name of the state and all its citizens." We invite you to read the full editorial here. Along with these two articles, we have seen a few wonderful Letters to the Editor submitted by some of our most committed supporters. It is critical that the average Nebraskan hear from their friends and neighbors who are calling for abolition. Our final story this month highlights some of the letters that have already been published and invites you to make your voice heard as well. Check it all out here! Help NADP keep executions out of Nebraska Last week, the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services announced that it has completed construction of the new execution chamber at the Nebraska State Penitentiary. This brings the state one step closer to scheduling an execution with its new lethal injection protocols. You and I both know that this is just another step along a costly and dangerous path for Nebraskans. For the past three and a half decades, our elected officials have tinkered with Nebraska’s death penalty in an effort to make it fair, accurate, and effective. But despite the best intentions of many, we know the system is broken. These efforts to change the method of execution will do nothing to change that, and the death penalty will continue to fail the people of Nebraska. Will you make a tax deductible donation to NADP today of $45, or whatever you can afford, to help us continue to tell Nebraskans that the death penalty is broken beyond repair? We have made great progress this year, mobilizing our fellow citizens, connecting with new stakeholders, influencing people with power, and changing the debate about Nebraska's public safety priorities. With your help, we can continue these small but important steps that build towards a full repeal of Nebraska's death penalty. Our opponents want to activate their shiny new death chamber. But you and I know that this will do nothing to address the needs of families of those who have been lost to homicide; it will do nothing to prevent the execution of an innocent person; and it will only increase the burden on our already stretched justice system and pass that extra cost along to taxpayers around the state. Please take a moment right now to visit http://nadp.net/donate.htm, or you can send your tax-deductible donation to NADP Foundation at 941 'O' Street, Suite 725, Lincoln, NE 68508. A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words While we know how much you love reading our updates, we thought it might be nice to share something with you that is a little easier on the eyes. Below is a cartoon we thought you might enjoy!
