10 years of data show that parole outcomes in CA are riddled with subjectivity, inequity, and bias. #SB81 (Skinner & Becker) will increase fairness and oversight in California’s parole process. Join us for a Community Town Hall to learn more! https://t.co/y7djPNIpdR
California says it will dismantle its death row!
Under Gov @GavinNewsom the state is moving to make the transfer of individuals on death row permanent and mandatory after what the state's CDCR calls a successful pilot program that voluntarily moved 101 individuals off death row.

Families who are desperately trying to stay in contact with their incarcerated loved ones are spending hundreds, even thousands of dollars every year for something you don't even think twice about.
@sydneykamlager Wake up!!! 🎉🎉🎉🎉 We are victorious @PrisonFTIO_inc 💙 SB1139 ✍🏻
The full list of bills the Governor announced signing can be found below: SB 1139 by Senator Sydney Kamlager (D-Los Angeles) – Prisons: visitation.
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Victory is ours with SB1008!!!!! Governor Gavin Newsom signed the bill!!!! @GavinNewsom@CAgovernor 🙏🏼📞 @SenJoshBecker@JoshBeckerSV 🎉🎉🎉
We want to thank you all and the co-sponsors for the hard work this whole year getting free phone calls!!
The Governor signed my free prison phone call bill (sb1008)!!!!! Thank you @GavinNewsom and thank you to all the thousands of advocates across the state who worked on this!!!
We’re told that CA needs to balance its budget and bills like SB1008 might be vetoed. Were asking for funding that amounts to a rounding error — just 0.004% — and was already allocated last year. This is an unacceptable excuse @CAgovernor@GavinNewsom. Sign SB1008 today!
If people earn higher wages in prison, they come home with savings and avoid reentry pitfalls like debt, homelessness, & recidivism. A higher wage would put people to financial success during reentry and long-term stability. @CAGovernor, please sign #SB1371
When people in prison earn cents per/hour, it severely limits their ability to pay into the victim restitution fund and less likely to meet their own basic needs. @CAgovernor@GavinNewsom, sign #SB1371 which creates a path towards financial stability and public safety.
Thank you @NewsHour for stopping by to talk about #SB1304 gate money.
Gate money is a very basic survival safety net that actually mitigates recidivism.
It's time to raise it. $200 is too low.
