In the last decade, conservatives have become the leaders in criminal justice reform. The issue affects many of the values of the conservative movement, such as public safety and limited government. State after state has emphasized public safety and limited government by promoting alternative measures for low-risk offenders and prioritizing precious prison space for violent and high-risk offenders. The results have been falling crime rates, incarceration rates, and savings in the hundreds of millions. Perspectives on Conservative Criminal Justice Policy presents what amounts to a brief course on the subject as it is in 2015, and features some of the most important and influential voices in the field. The topics included are: Criminal Justice Reform: Getting More Safety for Our Tax Dollars; Texas Prison Reform 2.0; 21st Century Juvenile Justice: A Texas-Sized Problem; and Rethinking Mental Health: Are We Throwing the Right Life Lines to People with Mental Illness? This monograph contains the adapted transcripts of several criminal justice panels at events in early 2015: the Texas Public Policy Foundation's annual Policy Orientation in Austin, Texas, and the Conservative Political Action Conference in National Harbor, Maryland.

The new political movement that now controls much of the Republican party is a coalition of Americans who simply wish to be left alone by the government. They want to be free to run a business, keep the money they earn, own a gun, practice their faith, and perhaps homeschool their children--in short, to control their own destinies. Directly opposed is the descriptively titled Takings Coalition, which is at the heart of the tax-and-spend left. These forces will battle for control of America's future over the next fifty years.In this compelling and powerful narrative, Grover Norquist describes the two competing coalitions in American politics, what they can achieve and what they cannot do, and how you may fit into the contest. Required reading for anyone who wants a deeper understanding of politics in America today, Leave Us Alone outlines the order of battle for the next generation.
