Hillary Clinton has been a longtime advocate of the death penalty. Clinton cosponsored the Innocence Protection Act of 2003 which became law in 2004 as part of the Justice for All Act.
The bill provides funding for post-conviction DNA testing and establishes a DNA testing process for individuals sentenced to the death penalty under federal law.
As first lady, she lobbied for President Clinton's crime bill, which expanded the list of crimes subject to the federal death penalty.
