Today, Florida will put to death a human being who is safely incarcerated and poses no danger to the public. If this bothers you, please join @DeathPenaltyAct https://t.co/InwJPDieQ4
Alabama announced a 7th nitrogen-gassing execution today. Once I wrote we must “put a stop to Alabama’s gassing-tortures before there’s a fifth one, a sixth one, a seventh—and so on.”Already there have been 5. The 6th is on 9-25, and the 7th is on 10-23. https://t.co/iRpot40qOK

Tomorrow's Judiciary Cmte hearing is at 1:30pm in Room 1525 of the Nebraska Capitol. @SenMcKinneyLD11's repeal bill LR15CA will be heard first, followed by Sen. Lippincott's hideous gas suffocation bill LB432. Online comments are due by 8am via https://t.co/KiydqYXqzo.
President Biden used his clemency authority Monday to commute the sentences of 37 of the 40 men on federal death row to life without parole, in one of the most significant moves taken against capital punishment in recent presidential history.

Today is #GivingTuesday! Your support is needed now more than ever, as another legislative session is right around the corner. Death Penalty proponents will likely reintroduce gas suffocation legislation, but our champion will introduce a new abolition bill as well.
"[T]he Supreme Court has twice ruled that it is perfectly constitutional to do so because the value of expediency and finality in the legal process is more important than truth, justice, and even human life."

The system failed Robert Roberson in every way. The courts have refused to consider evidence not only that Robert is innocent, but also that no crime ever occurred. The pardon board—supposedly a “safety valve”—refused to intervene. Only @GovAbbott can stop this execution now.
From the wrongful execution of Marcellus Williams to the looming threat over Robert Roberson, systemic biases and failures are sending innocent people to death row. https://t.co/lEU2gTqNtk
I was notified that The Court of Criminal Appeals made the decision to execute Robert Roberson for a crime that might not have even occurred 🚨 This is an INJUSTICE & SHOULD ALARM ALL TEXANS‼️
I am also calling for the #Txlege House Criminal Jurisprudence Committee to hold a hearing IMMEDIATELY to prevent an UNJUST EXECUTION‼️#txlege
Today is World Day Against the Death Penalty, and we are focused on the stubborn myth that capital punishment acts as a deterrent. If you would like to support our work in building an execution-free Nebraska, we would deeply appreciate your contribution.

The death penalty does little to serve victims or deter crime.
The vast majority of countries have either abolished the death penalty or introduced a moratorium on its use.

The #DeathPenalty is always inadmissible, because it attacks the inviolability and dignity of the person. I appeal for its abolition in all countries of the world. We must not forget that a person can repent and change, even up until the very last moment of their life.

Today is World Day Against the Death Penalty ! Let’s unite to raise awareness and call for abolition. The death penalty protects no one.
