The Honorable, The Senate:
This is to request that Senator Grobschmidt be added as a coauthor of Senate Joint Resolution 17, relating to four year terms of office for district attorneys.
Senator Grobschmidt had called my office requesting to be made a coauthor of this Joint Resolution and a member of my staff inadvertently left his name off the bill jacket while filling it out.
I appreciate your attention to this matter and am hopeful the official record can reflect this change.
Sincerely,
Brian Burke
State Senator

On December 31, 1996 the Department had 13,114 adult inmates assigned to Type "1" prisons. Out of the 13,114 inmates, 9,734 or 74.2% had assaultive offenses.
