RICARDO MENÉNDEZ MARCH: Well, as the members to our right will point out, dogs may not be racist, but our criminal justice system and prison system is, and this bill will just not address any of these issues. If the members to the right are so concerned about keeping people safe, they may as well be supporting issues like increasing benefits, public housing, and preventative approaches to our justice system. The Green Party won't stand by dog-whistle politics that will not keep people safe, and we will not be recommending this bill to the select committee. Kia ora.
