| Message | Whilst Interstatia supports Article 1 of the bill wholeheartedly, we cannot support Article 2. We believe it benefits prisoners to learn though experience that by choosing to go to work they will reap the results in the form of a steady income. This will lead to reduced reoffending rates and will help former inmates find a productive place in society. |

Then they came for the trade unionists and I didn't speak up because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up because I was a Protestant. Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up." - Pastor Martin Niemoller |
