California's Three Strikes Law To Be Reformed?

Finally! Despite opposing Proposition 66 on the November 2004 statewide ballot which would have amended California's draconian three-strikes law, now District Attorney Steve Cooley (and Sherriff Lee Baca) are getting behind a proposed November 2006 initiative statute to remove non-violent repeat felons from the purview of the law. This is the first news I have heard of a progressive measure on the 2006 ballot. This is a good thing!
