    Teamwork Makes the Dreamwork
    This is the inaugural newsletter for a big event to
    be held March 5-7, 2023 in our nation’s capital.
    This will be a 3-part event that will send a critical
    message to the members of Congress. And if
    we’re successful,that message will reach
    millions more by way of newspapers, television,
    and social media.


    The plans for this momentous event are taking
    shape. Currently, the biggest unknown part of the
    plan is the level of participation by our country’s
    registered persons and their loved ones. We are
    asking everyone who reads this newsletter to
    spread the word. Start making plans to attend;
    save your money; clear your calendar; offer your
    help to the planners. The number of registered
    persons and their supporters is estimated to be in
    excess of 2 million. From a group this large, we
    hope to muster a sizable number of participants.
    Several thousand marchers would make a bold
    statement. Ten times that number would be a
    statement heard around the world.


    The event will consist of 3 distinct parts:
    1. A conference, with guest speakers, break-out
    sessions, networking opportunities etc.


    2.A visit to Capitol Hill for meetings with
    legislators or staff (appointments will be made in
    advance). Note: as part of the event, we will have a
    training session so that everyone is more
    comfortable with this task.


    3. A vigil on the steps of the Supreme Court of the
    United States (SCOTUS). This will be reminiscent
    of a funeral procession, led by pall bearers carrying
    a mock coffin. I envision numerous hand-made
    signs so that our message isn’t lost on passer-byes.


    This event will send a powerful message, but only
    if we are a massive crowd,acting together to
    convey a united message. For more information,
    contact ACSOL:service@all4consolaws.org


    The planning phase of this venture is paramount.
    While we do have individuals working diligently
    at this moment, we still need people to step up
    and get involved. As of this time,we have
    identified 6 committees and all of them have
    openings.Please consider lifting your voice,
    giving your time and joining the most significant
    registered person advocacy event in recent
    history.


    The committees are as follows:
    1.Personnel Procurement and Oversight: fill all
    committee positions and provide oversight to keep
    all parties working toward a common goal.
    2.Programming:finalize speakers (including an
    emcee),arrange breakout sessions and social
    gatherings
    3.Finance:determine a budget,raise money
    (grants,donations,etc),handle any required
    permits, handle hardship subsidies.
    4.Registration/Evaluation:set up and run all
    registration activities,make Legislative
    appointments,develop,distribute,and collect
    evaluation forms.
    5.Facilities,Transportation,Recording:
    determine venues for conference and hotel,
    investigate transportation issues,including local
    and cross-country travel,investigate parking
    options, arrange equipment and personnel to record
    and live-stream the conference and vigil.
    6.Publicity, Printing, Sponsors, Vendors:market
    this event, work to increase attendance, arrange
    sponsors and vendors,handle any printing
    requirements.


    We need reliable and dedicated volunteers to step
    up. If you have skills, experience, or just a strong
    desire to help, please contact us to offer your
    services.

    This is a complex plan.It will require an
    enormous effort on the part of the organizers.
    And no less important, it will require “buy-in” by
    a very large number of participants; that means
    YOU!!! Please do not let this opportunity pass
    you by. If we ever hope to improve our lot in life,
    this may be our very best chance. Get on-board,
    join the effort, be a part of the solution. Don’t sit
    this one out. Don’t let others do your work for
    you.THIS IS VITALLY IMPORTANT!


    This event calls attention to the 20th anniversary
    of the Smith v. Doe SCOTUS decision (538 U.S.
    84). To this day, that decision causes severe harm
    to registered persons and their families. This case
    reviewed the legality of Alaska’s Sex Offender
    Registration Act on the grounds that it violated
    the Ex Post Facto clause of Article 1 of the U.S.
    Constitution. John Doe I and II were adjudicated

    prior to the creation of the statute.

    The question


    for the justices hinged on whether the statute was
    punitive in nature. If it was not punitive, then
    Ex Post Facto would not apply. The district court
    ruled in favor of the State while the appeals court
    reversed that ruling in declaring that the law was,
    in fact punitive. For all of us who have real life
    experience  with  this  issue , we know
    unequivocally, that

    these laws are punitive!


    In a
    6-3 ruling, SCOTUS sided with Alaska in
    announcing that the law was civil, not punitive,
    and therefore, did not violate the Ex Post Facto
    clause. They apparently reached this decision out
    of respect to the original intent of the Alaska
    legislature. This deference to legislative intent is
    standard practice for SCOTUS however, most of
    us will agree that the punitive evidence of this
    and  other  statutes  is so obvious and

    overwhelming as to be laughable.

    The dissenting


    justices contended that the law was punitive and
    imposed severe deprivations of liberty. Justice
    Stevens' added,"It is also clear beyond
    peradventure that these unique consequences of

    conviction of a sex offense are punitive.


    They

    share three characteristics, which in the aggregate
    are not present  in any civil sanction. The
    sanctions (1) constitute a severe deprivation of
    the offender's liberty,(2) are imposed on
    everyone who is convicted of a relevant criminal
    offense,and (3) are imposed only on those
    criminals. Unlike any of the cases that the Court
    has cited,a criminal conviction under these
    statutes provides both a sufficient and a necessary

    condition for the sanction”.



    An event such as this requires monumental
    advance planning. To help with this task, we are
    asking that those who plan to attend signup with
    a pre-order payment of $20.This will help
    determine the size of the event and in turn, drive

    multiple other decisions.



    The $20 fee will count as $40 toward the cost of
    the conference
    The $20 fee is nonrefundable and will, in part,
    finance a scholarship fund to help with expenses
    for those who cannot afford it.
    The deadline to take advantage of  this early
    signup benefit is June 30, 2022
    The Capitol Hill training session requires
    attendance at the conference. The Vigil is free

    and requires no other commitment.



    The signup page has a “Scholarship Donation”
    field. If you are able to help with expenses for
    this big event, please follow the instructions on
    the signup page to give what you can. To signup,

    please visit the following website:

    information with those who might benefit from it.
    Please encourage your loved ones to attend these
    events,and if they are so inspired,to join a

    planning committee.



    Please read subsequent newsletters and review the
    website from time-to-time for changes to our plans
