<p><strong>As leaders in the law enforcement community, we are concerned that the federal criminal justice system is being dismantled and that some legislative proposals would recklessly dismantle it further. We want to make clear that we OPPOSE any legislation that will:</strong></p><p><strong>(1) Reduce penalties for violent offenders or drug traffickers or make those already convicted eligible for early release;</strong></p><p><strong>(2) Change federal forfeiture law to make it harder to strip drug dealers and other criminals of their ill-gotten gains; or</strong></p><p><strong>(3) Undermine the very successful asset sharing program, which currently sends money to state and local law enforcement for use in fighting crime.</strong></p>
