Speeding up the time between conviction and execution for every murderer is long overdue:
Blackstone’s Ratio probably made sense hundreds of years ago. It makes no sense today when you look at all of the protection criminals are given before trial in this country. Murderers are given even more protections in the form of endless appeals after they are found guilty. Twenty years or more often elapses before a murderer is finally executed. And executions are disappearing each time a state legislator abolishes the death penalty. Indeed, fewer executions take place than the number of convicted murderers released.
I doubt if all of those convicted murderers being set free are not guilty twenty years after being convicted. There is too much room for bribery and tampering with evidence to convince me that so many prosecutors made so many mistakes. Or maybe juries made all of those mistakes which does not say much for the jury system.

Unfortunately, lawyers make too much money on appeals for this legislation to stand a chance:
The Department of Justice has drafted legislation that would expedite capital punishment for those found guilty of mass killings, according to a top Trump administration official.

First off, the Supreme Court will knock down “quick executions” even if it passes. Justice delayed is justice denied is never considered by federal judges when it comes to the death penalty.
Secondly, the Democrat Party’s Culture of Death kill everybody —— except convicted murderers.
Note that mass killings usually occur within minutes which tells me the proposed law is a sneaky approach to disarming law-abiding Americans. Serial killers are mass murderers who kill individual victims over a long period of time, yet they are not included in the proposed legislation because they do not shoot their victims. Basically, Jack the Ripper who killed with a knife would die in prison of old age.
Finally, every mass murderer starts out knowing they will be killed at the scene of the crime or shortly thereafter. An unreported suicide never occurs to them; hence, publicity is their motivating factor.
Television does not have First Amendment protection. No law is required if the Department of Justice is serious about reducing those mass killings carried out with a gun. The Ministry of Propaganda (FCC) can do something useful for once by pulling broadcast licenses from the outlets that provide the wall-to-wall coverage mass murderers want more than they want to live.
