We are happy to announce that our prison price calculator is live!

The average WI worker earns $18/hr. For just one 1.5oz bar of soap, the outside equivalent for a Wisconsin inmate earning $0.26/hr would be $62.10. An inmate would have to work 3 hours to be able to afford it.

As heard in Finance today, the Milwaukee County Sheriff’s Office is running a staggering $6,194,592 overtime bill, the largest in recent memory. They want an additional $1.5 million allocated in next year’s budget, too. And unlike the narrative they keep leaning on, less than

Excfessive force used against a peaceful sit-in sounds like fairer coverage. https://t.co/tzy0IrTd7B

Real crimes behind the protest at Milwaukee County Jail. Solidarity with people who did not ask for more "gym" time, but rather demanded to be let out of their cells. #CloseMilwaukeeCountyJail

[Rep. Ryan Clancy @RyanClancyWI]

It wasn’t a “riot” until the Sheriffs deployed pepper spray and beatings. This was an act of civil disobedience to bring attention to the horrific and inhuman conditions in a jail that has claimed six lives in 14 months.

Deputies who peppersprayed a sit-in protest at Milwaukee County Jail are now "victims" of pepper spray. The peaceful act is a "riot" by people who "barricaded themselves." Who remebers that 6 people died in that jail over the last 14 months because of the conditions? Solidarity!

It's time to get loud about injustice!

[Milwaukee 🌹🇵🇸 DSA @mkedsa]

Republicans are proposing a constitutional amendment requiring higher cash bail for violent offenders. In his first speech on the assembly floor, DSA's own Ryan Clancy spoke against this amendment. We encourage you to ask your representatives to oppose it too.

🧵Wisconsin DOC wants a new youth prison in Milwaukee. Proponents are pushing lots of false claims to justify this, so we put together this thread to help you learn the facts.

Sign our petition at https://t.co/kOPUBCICug to tell Governor Evers we don't want this facility.

[Milwaukee 🌹🇵🇸 DSA @mkedsa]

Incarcerating children is unethical and ineffective. Please sign our petition to demand that governor Evers declare a moratorium on Serious Juvenile Offender sentences so that we do not waste more money incarcerating and abusing children.
