Criminal justice advocate. Columbia Law Student. Crazy enough to think I can make a difference.

Was honored to speak in front of the MN State Senate in favor of a bill to restore the right to vote to formerly incarcerated people.

A massive thank you to @SenatorChampion, @SenRonLatz and @CedrickFrazier for this opportunity and for your incredible work on this bill.

@redford Love the article, Patrick. We need you writing about politics more often.

@Oslerguy @McGruffatNCPC @SLandP @RachelBarkow @amyklobuchar @AoDespair @BarbMcQuade @JoyceWhiteVance @JulieNelsonKARE Congratulations Mark - I’m excited for all of the good change you’ll be helping to bring to Hennepin County

The biggest lie society tells us is that incarcerated people are irredeemably and fundamentally different from us.

Every incarcerated person I've ever worked with has been just like me - human.

[Taylor Jones @TaylorLJones2]

It was the honor of a lifetime to meet with one of my heroes @CornelWest

Excited to continue the conversation in your office hours next semester 🤝🏽

The people making this argument about #JordanNeely oppose every single policy that would help mentally ill people on subways.

[Batya Ungar-Sargon @bungarsargon]

I ride the subway a lot. Not a week goes by that a mentally ill person doesn't get on and terrorize the entire car—especially women, especially Asians. Usually the men just sit there and pretend it's not happening. It's a disgrace that working New Yorkers have to live like this.

I want to thank @SenatorChampion for his kind words about me yesterday during the Higher Education Committee.

It’s been incredible to be part of a team that is giving opportunities to young Black lawyers, restoring voting rights, and fighting for Minnesotans of all backgrounds.

[Taylor Jones @TaylorLJones2]

I have been fighting for this day for 6 years. Countless others have been fighting for decades.

Frankly, I’m lost for words. All I can manage to say is that this gives me - and so many others - hope for what is possible.

Celebration outside Senate Chamber after MN Senate passes Restore the Vote, a bill that returns voting rights to 50,000-plus persons currently on probation for felony offenses.
