[|Presentation] IBennett, Wyoming, Republican
 * House Bill Number**- HB22

 * Issue Catergory and Bill Title**- Criminal Justice, Abolish Death Penalty
 * Purpose**- We no longer want the death penalty to be an option for a criminals final sentence.
 * Who Our Bill Will Apply To**- Criminals, The Community
 * Terms and Benefits**- To the cases that would normally end in death penalty we would replace that with a lifetime in prison. If bill gets passed it goes into immediate effect but people already sentenced to the death penalty must follow through.
 * Fiscal Impact**- More money would be needed to make prisons larger. Also, since there would be more prisoners you would need more food and the basic necessities they provide.
