>From TLJ: 4/20. President Bush announced his intent to nominate Robert Flores to be Administrator of the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP). Flores is currently the VP and Senior Counsel for the National Law Center for Children and Families. He also served on the COPA Commission. He is one of the leading proponents of prosecuting obscenity on the Internet, and requiring schools and libraries receiving e-rate subsidies to use filtering technology. However, the OJJDP is not a prosecutorial office; it collects and disseminates information, and provides grants and other assistant to state and local authorities. It also has no authority regarding the e-rate. http://www.whitehouse.gov/news/releases/2001/04/20010420-1.html THE WHITE HOUSE Office of the Press Secretary _________________________________________________________________ For Immediate Release April 20, 2001 President George W.
