Interesting connections between car-centric infrastructure and homelessness.

@SenatorHeinrich @RepGabeVasquez now would be a great time stand against torture and co-sponsor the End Solitary Confinement Act, which would ban the use of solitary in all federal detention facilities. Solitary is torture that no one should be subjected to. #EndTortureNow

Venezuelan asylum seekers were punished with solitary confinement for refusing removal to Mexico. These actions are not only inhumane, they're illegal.

That's why we partnered with @LasAmericasIAC to file a complaint against Otero Processing Center. https://t.co/myoELVblJL

The current moment presents an opportunity for the federal government to truly lead the way by ending solitary confinement, other than in extreme circumstances and measured in hours not days, and create incentives for states and localities to do the same. It's time to end torture and adopt evidence-based alternatives that are more humane and effective.

Contact @POTUS Biden and your U.S. Senators & House Representatives and demand an end to Solitary Confinement with one click! https://t.co/RJfaYdAJAu

Solitary confinement is torture. period. It has no place in our country, for immigrants seeking refuge or people in our prisons and jails. The End Solitary Confinement Act would ban solitary confinement in federal prisons. Plz Senator @SenatorHeinrich, co-sponsor! #endtorturenow

[Unlock The Box Campaign @UnlockTheBoxNow]

Thank you @RepCori for your support on this important Day of Action to #EndTortureNow, and for the introduction of landmark legislation with the End Solitary Confinement Act!

🚫 Solitary confinement = torture. Let's end this inhumane practice once and for all. Join us on May 16th for a National Day of Action to support ESCA, the bill that demands #TransformationNotTorture. Together, we can make a difference! ➡️ https://t.co/lVzdNhqvAX

[dolores canales @NOMORESHU]

The consequences of solitary confinement are staggering: 78% more likely to die by suicide, 110% more likely to overdose. It's time to take a stand. Join me on May 16th for the National Day of Action to end this cruel cycle. ➡️ https://t.co/lVzdNhqvAX

[Congresswoman Cori Bush (Archived) @RepCori]

Solitary confinement is torture.

I am proud to support @UnlockTheBoxNow in their National Day of Action. It’s past time to abolish this inhumane practice and pass my #EndSolitary Confinement Act.

[Saba Ijadi @SabaIjadi]

Crazy to me that in a historic budget year, NM legislature decided to spend $372.8 million on prisons and just $200 million on housing. I know the $200 million is more than ever before, but shouldn’t those sums be reversed? Or at least equal? #nmleg #nmpol

In NM, a minor traffic violation can jeopardize your job and lead to jail time. Our families shouldn't have to get tangled up in the criminal justice system over minor offenses. Read more in @FinesandFeesJC 's latest report ➡️ https://t.co/0ZidntIZg3

Wrote a short piece recently. basically: we need to reduce barriers to housing for people returning from incarceration, struggling with substance use disorder, and experiencing homelessness. Thanks ⁦@usbc123⁩ Housing Will Result in Less Crime https://t.co/pVT70ktbeo

[United South Broadway Corporation @usbc123]

Criminalizing homelessness not only doesn't solve the problem, @ACLUNM just won an important legal victory here in #Albuquerque where state District Judge Joshua Allison ruled that sweeps violate the Constitutional rights of the unhoused.

Court-imposed fines and fees can be the difference between families and individuals having enough to get by day to day - or having to cut back on the essentials.

[Fines and Fees Justice Center @FinesandFeesJC]

*It's official* — this summer New Mexico will be reinstating licenses which were suspended for missed court hearings or overdue fines & fees payments.

Does anyone have a good recommendation for tent rental in ABQ?
