Lawmakers and law enforcement officials gathered in Annapolis to advocate for a series of bills that aim to reduce crime by providing additional services to communities and inmates, reports FOX45. The bills include paying inmates minimum wage for their work, disrupting gun traffic in Baltimore by requiring those who buy and sell ghost guns to see a judge before being released, and giving free security systems and doorbell cameras to residents in high-crime regions. Baltimore City State's Attorney Ivan Bates believes the minimum wage bill could help inmates prepare for life outside of prison, while Baltimore City Sheriff Sam Cogen is pushing for the gun traffic bill to disrupt violence in the city.
