On episode 368 of Registry Matters, Michigan's House Bill 5425 threatens to broadly ban registered persons from working at any business serving minors with penalties that could cost taxpayers $200K per incarceration, Nebraska courts side with the state in ruling that retroactive registration extensions are mere civil regulations rather than criminal punishment protected by ex post facto clauses, and New Mexico's legislative session killed most criminal justice reform bills but managed to pass one eliminating the statute of limitations — raising serious concerns about whether defendants can receive fair trials when witnesses and evidence have long since disappeared.

The Registry Matters Podcast's mission is to cover issues surrounding the Registry. We cover cases that will peel back the veneer of what we need to do to change our lives for the better. We cover news articles that spark conversations about the total insanity of this modern day witch hunt. This podcast will call out bad policy and call out those that are making bad policy. To change things for the positive, we need to act. We are 6-7-8-900k strong. With that many people, plus their friends and family, over a million people are affected by the registry. We should be able to secure donations to hire lawyers and lobbyists to move the agenda in our favor. We need our people to be represented.
