Your Petitioner, Representative Welch on behalf of Greg and Sarah Clarkson, hereinafter presents the following summary of their grievance involving a dispute with a Kingston Police officer and 2 social workers with the Division of Children, Youth, and Families (DCYF) and invokes the constitutional authority and duty of the Honorable House of Representatives pursuant to said Articles 31 and 32 to bring about their redress:
