Jared Kushner Is Pushing For Prison Reform

I’m old enough to remember when Donald Trump ran as the “law-and-order” candidate:

“Why it matters: The White House sees this as a conservative issue (save money, cut crime) that could get bipartisan support (spending for workforce development), heading into a midterm election year when it’ll be even harder to get congressional accomplishments than it was last year. …

Jared and his wife, Ivanka Trump, held a dinner discussion at their home, including Sens. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.), Mike Lee (R-Utah) and Sheldon Whitehouse (D-R.I.)

The administration is exploring possible legislative proposals and administrative actions. An early step could include a push for public awareness involving churches. …

Koch Industries general counsel Mark Holden, a longtime champion of the issue, told me he has been impressed with Kushner’s passion, and that the approach the administration is exploring “has been showed to markedly reduce recidivism.”

Now, Jarvanka are hosting Dick Durbin at their home in an effort to figure out how to deliver another big item on the Koch Brothers agenda.

Note: The Koch Brothers have already got their tax cut. They’re also demanding DACA.
