Abstract
- The article reports that New York Governor David Paterson has announced plans to reform the Rockefeller drug laws significantly. The laws were passed in 1973, imposing mandatory jail sentences for drug-related crimes. As a result of the laws being followed by other states, minor drug offenders began to fill the U.S. penal system.
