North Dakota's House of Representatives recently voted down a residency restriction bill. From the Grand Forks Herald:
The House defeated a bill Monday that would have restricted convicted sex offenders from living near or being near schools, day care centers and other areas with children.
Those who opposed the bill said the state’s police departments and sheriffs testified against it, because it did not offer the protection it seemed to while making it harder for sex offenders to find a place to live.
Law enforcement said that sex offenders barred from living near a school could nevertheless be allowed to live next door to apartments in which several children may live, and whose parents may be gone to work every day.
The bill died on a 65-28 vote.
It is incredibly refreshing to see that evidence-based arguments actually persuaded a legislature in regards to residency restrictions.
