WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump said Monday he wants to follow up on criminal justice reform with efforts that help federal inmates find jobs after they leave prison.

Congress passed legislation last year called the First Step Act that gives judges more discretion when sentencing some drug offenders and boosts prisoner rehabilitation efforts. The effort drew strong support from Republicans and Democrats worried that mandatory minimum laws had generated unfair sentences in many drug-related cases.

He said a"Second Step Act" will focus on"successful re-entry and reduced unemployment for Americans with past criminal records." His goal is to cut that unemployment rate for ex-prisoners to single digits within five years.

Trump calls for revoking New York Times, Washington Post Pulitzers for Mueller coverageTrump claimed the end of the Mueller probe proved reporting by The New York Times and Washington Post to be false. Both outlets have stood by their reporting. Whateves Wow is he overplaying his hand. Not being the first POTUS to be indicted for treason has gone to his head. With every other POTUS before him it was just a given ... Since we’re revoking things, how about removing realDonaldTrump from White House? He’s a golf cheat, and that should be enough reason.
