While a moratorium on federal executions has symbolic value, we’ve seen the danger of half-measures that do not fully address the fundamental brokenness of our death penalty system. More is required.

[ABA Death Penalty Representation Project @DeathPenaltyRep]

1/ A few weeks ago, we tweeted about the possible concerns that may arise if the Board recommended to deny #clemency to #QuintinJones, who is Black, after voting unanimously to recommend clemency be granted to Thomas Whitaker, who is White

The #California Commission on Revision of the Penal Code has voted to recommend to the Legislature that the California #deathpenalty be repealed. Here is a link to the CRPC staff memo on the Commission’s recommendations. https://t.co/SWAqhPNLhE @DPFocus @Nancy_Haydt @DPInfoCtr

@LAO_CA investigation of @CDAA reveals more than $700K in misallocated state funds. Did CDAA misappropriate that from the $3M in government funds it received in 2018? @acluSoCal @ProsAlliance https://t.co/3RFqwcdyUX

From CA AG @RobBonta. #deathpenalty is fallible and ineffective as a deterrent. End the #DeathPenalty in # California

[Rob Bonta @RobBonta]

The death penalty is fallible and ineffective at deterring violent crime. There is no recourse when a mistake is made and an innocent person is put to death.

[NACDL @NACDL]

Racial bias in Nevada’s death sentencing is clear: the death penalty is a deeply unequal, ineffective, and inhumane injustice that needs to be abolished. #AB395 #EndtheDeathPenalty #nvleg

[Sister Helen Prejean @helenprejean]

We haven't forgotten. Forensic testing just revealed DNA from an unknown male on the murder weapon and a bloody shirt found at the crime scene. Ledell Lee's DNA was not on either object. Gov. @AsaHutchinson and @AGRutledge rushed to execute this man despite big holes in the case.

[Ohioans to Stop Executions @OhStopExecution]

Ohio banned the death penalty for defendants who were mentally ill at the time of their offense. While this is great progress, we can do more! Let’s end the #deathpenalty once and for all. #EndTheDeathPenalty #NoDeathPenaltyOH #MentalHealthAwarenessMonth
