It's been three months since Illinois eliminated cash bail.
Incarceration rates are down, crime has not increased, and lives are being saved.
Bail reform works.

.@Rep_Stansbury@MartinHeinrich@SenatorLujan@potus@vp Locking people away in solitary confinement is inhumane and damaging to one mental and physical health. Help us pass the End Solitary Confinement Act: https://t.co/1lLFjo0Y1w https://t.co/0w788pUY9p
Urge the governor to sign these two pieces of common-sense legislation. The 10s of millions dollars saved could be reinvested in evidence-based initiatives that address the root causes of criminal behavior.
Today, @GovMLG has Probation and Parole Reform (SB 84) and Sentencing Reform (SB 187) bills on her desk that could help heal New Mexico communities devastated by failed mass incarceration policies.

@thepaperabq Why is this an exclusive? This is the same information APD released during the press conference a month ago.

@gfrendakKOB@KOB4@gfrendakKOB not once did the woman in the clip say the "suspect pointed his gun at several people." Did I miss that part. Please don't spread copaganda!!
@CatlinNick will you please stop producing copaganda! The story below is really bad and it seems as if you are wholesale endorsing police violence.

The MCI was not a community initiative. Several of us social workers had to call the city out about not having representation of those directly impacted by the criminal legal system. Then, yes, different groups were invited but the recommendations don’t reflect their input.
People with one placement in solitary confinement are 55% more likely to die by suicide after release.
Those with multiple placements in solitary confinement were 129% more likely to die by suicide after release. #WeHonorYou#StopSolitary#SolitaryisTorture
On September 10th, National Suicide Prevention Day, we want to honor those who’ve lost their lives, both in and out of solitary confinement. At 2pm EST, we will be hosting a vigil on Twitter where we’ll uplift and remember the names and stories of loved ones. (1/4)
This story is full of misinformation. The producers and news director@KOAT channel 7 should be a shamed of themselves for allowing this package to air. He blatantly lies. https://t.co/9FEPDeHNde
