Acknowledgments

Chairman Biden and the Judiciary Committee would like to express
their extreme gratitude to the many state organizations who were so
helpful throughout the compilation of this report. Their hours of
research provided us with the information necessary to produce our
findings.

Of course the listing of these agencies in this appendix in no way
implies their support of any of the ideas or recommendations in
this document. But even where such differences exist, we appreciate
the benefit of their input and views, which helped refine and shape
ours.
