Viewpoint: Judicial Council’s wrong-headed approach to driver’s license suspensions

Brandon Greene co-writes for The Recorder (registration required), Jan. 13, 2017

While we certainly understand the Judicial Council’s concern about filling revenue gaps, we believe that those gaps will more readily and equitably be filled by strengthening the economic security of more Californians through the elimination of license suspension as a collections tool. We further believe that doing so would put California in the forefront nationally of efforts to limit racial bias in our criminal justice system.
