Newly elected Democrat PA Governor Josh Shapiro is literally taking the law into his own hands.
Once again, we have a Democrat who is looking out more for disgusting criminals than law-abiding citizens.
Shapiro has vowed to take the death penalty off the table as long as he is governor.
Let Them Live!
Shapiro stated that the state “should not be in the business of putting people to death.”
He wen to not say that he will not be enforcing any death penalty sentences while he is in office.
Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) had something to say about that…
Nothing to see here.
Just a Democrat governor ignoring the laws on the books, disregarding multiple jury verdicts, and promising to give clemency to every capital murderer in Pennsylvania. https://t.co/0hT14C3svY

He also called on the PA legislature to take action on this.
Shapiro stated, “Today, I am respectfully calling on the General Assembly to work with me to abolish the death penalty once and for all here in Pennsylvania.”
Shapiro, when running for Attorney General in 2016, supported the death penalty.
Even recently, he stated that it should still be used for the most heinous of cases.
Now, like so many other Democrats, he is folding to the far left woke in the party.
