Jerry Moran, R-Hays, head of the Judiciary Committee, lawmakers are examining a package of juvenile crime proposals, ranging from starting military-style boot camps to trying 16- and 17-year-olds as adults for certain crimes. Gov. Joan Finney has enlisted the help of Bill Koch, a billionaire and Wichita native, in developing a series of crime measures. Koch is best known for winning the America's Cup yacht race in 1992. The gangs seem to have considerable influence over state lawmakers as they discuss ways to disarm and control an increasingly armed and uncontrollable population of young people. The House Judiciary Committee is focusing on an adult crime package, while the Senate Judiciary mainly focuses on juvenile crime. And politically, getting tough on crime is a safe bet this year. The House Judiciary Committee has heard limited testimony on juvenile crime proposals, but it is supposed to focus its attention on dealing with adult crimes. The Associated Press On Wednesday, the House Judiciary Committee will hold hearings on a "Three Strikes, You're Out" proposal, a concept that has caught fire in state houses in other crime-weary states. Lawmakers have said crime is the biggest issue of the session, and juvenile crime has been the focus of the work by the Senate Judiciary Committee. They have needed no invitation by police or prosecutors. The Legislature began its fourth week of a 13-week session with most work still being done in committees. TOPEKA — Ironically, street gangs might be the strongest lobbying force in the Legislature this year, even if they don't know it. "I think it has some real appeal," said Rep. Michael O'Neal, R-Hutchinson, the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee. Under the proposal, a person who is convicted of three violent felonies could receive an extended prison stay, even life without parole. The idea is to get career criminals off the street. Koch is spending his own money The Associated Press "Forget about Wally Cleaver." Kyle Smith, assistant attorney general for the Kansas Bureau of Investigation, told the committee. O'Neal acknowledged that members of his committee have their work cut out for them. During the Senate Judiciary Committee's hearings, an assortment of law-enforcement officers said the same thing: Kids just are not the same today. researching juvenile crime, and Finney said she plans to work through a Koch commission to examine whatever recommendations his researchers make. Some kids carry guns because they are worried about gangs, some because they think it's neat. "Kids today think it's fashionable," Tito Labra, a Sedgwick County sheriff's deputy who is a gang expert. The present juvenile system was created when parents became indignant if their kids swiped an apple from the corner grocery store. The committee held hearings on juvenile boot camps, although a lean state budget might make it difficult to organize those camps. Lawmakers are looking at the prospect of allowing local jurisdictions — cities or counties — to start their own juvenile camps. "The laws dealing with juveniles were created at a time when juveniles committed vandalism and shoplifting." Moran said. "We've gone beyond that. We have juveniles committing violent acts." House to hear '3 Strikes, You're Out' crime bill TOPEKA — a Bill reinstating the death penalty has stalled in a House committee, but crime continues to be the focus of the Legislature this week. Lawmakers must decide, for example, which felonies would be covered by the "three strikes" concept. They also must decide about the time frame in which the three felonies must be committed. For example, if a man commits two felonies in his 20s, and then the third in his 60s, should he be put away for the rest of his life? "I predict a "Three Strikes, You're Out" bill will pass the Legislature," O'Neal said. Report: millions of jobs needed for Clinton's welfare reform plan The computer estimate, which has been under discussion at the Department of Health and Human Services, would require a massive public jobs program that Congress probably would onose as too expensive. The Associated Press Administration says number is misleading WASHINGTON — Administration officials are discounting a preliminary estimate that as many as 2.3 million jobs may have to be created for people who will be pushed off welfare under President Clinton's welfare reform plan. Although administration officials acknowledged the preliminary estimate, they said the number had little significance because it was based on a false assumption about how many people actually would be on welfare when the new policy went into effect. One official who attended the meeting said the estimate was developed as a preliminary exercise to gauge what impact various policies would have on the size of the welfare rolls. The estimate first was discussed at a Jan. 14 meeting at the Department of Health and Human Services. "It did not account for the effects of current policy, health reform or for other policies," said the official, who spoke on the condition that he not be identified further. The administration plans to propose to Congress this spring that welfare payments be limited to two years and that recipients must find a job after that. Currently, there are an estimated 5 million low-income families, most of them single mothers, getting welfare under Aid to Families with Dependent Children. The official said the Clinton administration still does not know how many parents will be pushed into the job market after the two years expire. "It's certainly not going to be 2.3 million," the official said. Clinton has said health care reform would reduce the welfare rolls by 1 million families because mothers often choose welfare, which comes with health insurance, over minimum-wage jobs that often have no such benefits. The official said that other steps that will shrink the welfare rolls are more aggressive efforts to collect child support payments, a campaign against teen-age pregnancy, development of new training programs and expansion of tax credits for low-income workers.
