Dear ___________ 

Advocating for justice in Massachusetts has always been a grassroots event. Thankfully, many public officials such as yourself have also held up the banner high. 

The recent SJC ruling regarding parole granting to convicted criminals who committed their crimes while they were juvenile is an injustice to all Massachusetts residents; especially the victims and their families.

I hope that you will give the most serious consideration to advocate for public policy that will be fair to victims and their families. 

Respectfully submitted,
