HR-5722: "International Megan's Law"

The site just mentioned below has a serious item posted on it: Bill HR-5722, "International Megan's Law" which apparently calls for notifying the destination country that an American registered sex offender is headed to, for any purpose including vacation.


The site's owner correctly notes that if this bill passes, the destination countries will prevent the registered sex offender from entering.


This cuts off the one right a lawyer friend called the one right to preserve above all else -- the right to leave. The walls are rising...
