Fits right in with "reddest of the red". What they are doing here is keep exonerations based on new evidence or technology (like this recent one where a woman served 20 years before being cleared by DNA and prosecutorial misconduct) from happening.

House Bill 1045 by Rep. Scott Biggs, R-Chickasha, would permit inmates to file a single petition in state court challenging their conviction, and would require the petition to be filed within two years from the date of sentencing. If this bill were to become law, these arbitrary limits could result in thousands of inmates, including the innocent, being left with no legal avenue to challenge their convictions.
