It was founded in 1987. Its purpose is to end the use of capital punishment in the State of Ohio. The views of the members that underlie that purpose are many, but can be summarized into two broad categories: 1) A moral commitment to life that precludes the purposeful killing of any human being and/or 2) Recognition that the death penalty as it is being implemented in Ohio is not fairly or accurately applied.
Wisconsin Coalition Against the Death Penalty | Visit Web site
Wisconsin became the first state in the union to abolish the death penalty. But recently, there has been a persistent attack on that abolishment from those who would like to see state-sanctioned murder return to the state. The Wisconsin Coalition Against the Death Penalty is a coalition that has formed to fight attempts to bring the death penalty back.
