End Capital Punishment in the United States of America

THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People reaffirms and stands united and will continue to advocate to end capital punishment at the federal and state level permanently; and

BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, that units of the NAACP encourage the proper government authorities and all people of good will to halt capital punishment in the United States of America. This will be in keeping with 104 countries that have already abolished this inhumane act.
