Top Tweets for #mandatoryMinimums
If you only want to disarm civilians, and don't oppose *government personnel* carrying guns, you're not really anti-#gun, more like pro-tyranny.
As a government official, you should also let people reply to your posts.
However, your concerns with #MandatoryMinimums are spot on.
On a personal level, I am about as anti-gun as you can get. But I have clients who face years of mandatory minimum time in prison because they possessed (not even used!) a gun after having stolen $1001 dollars worth of stuff from Target, often years before—
Decades of Cashless Bail and the end of Mandatory Minimums have cost us enough in blood and treasure. Consider this your official notice: REPARATIONS PAID IN FULL! Thank you for your attention, America. #endcashlessbail #mandatoryminimums #debtpaid
@LPNational Maybe not just #verdicts, but also #sentences, should be up to #juries rather than #judges?
That way if lawmakers and bureaucrats try to impose #MandatoryMinimums, ordinary people will see it directly when they serve on juries and run into limits on their ability to do justice.

🚨#Texas lawmakers are reviving #ToughOnCrime policies, pushing 100+ bills to expand #MandatoryMinimums & impose harsher sentences.
These measures are ineffective and will worsen #PrisonOvercrowding without improving #PublicSafety.

Why are #mandatoryminimums #badpolicy?
1. They lead to bad outcomes- they’re #dehumanizing and punch down on those most vulnerable.
2. They are a lie-they are not pro-victim.
3. They leave #nodiscretion- mandatory means mandatory.
#MandatoryMinimums don't deter crime. They don't increase public safety. It's a performative signal to the community that legislators care about safety. @DCJusticeLab
"The first time I ever thought about #mandatoryminimums was when I got the paper [and was sentenced to them]. I never had an understanding of the system until I was in it. Until I got the time. " --Bryant Woodland
Our panel features Alexandra Bailey (@SentencingProj), Mona Sahaf (@verainstitute), and Bryant Woodland @secondlookdc). Our panelists wear many hats as advocates, survivors, the formerly incarcerated, and former prosecutors. #mandatoryminimums @DCJusticeLab
Most judges feel “stifled by #mandatoryminimums [] & perceive that these statutes sometimes prevent them from properly carrying out their sentencing role by reducing the discretion they have to do their jobs.” https://t.co/aO4ztpgux7

This week SCOTUS dealt a striking blow to the First Step Act when it comes to #mandatoryminimums which devastated Black families for decades. The war on us continues.
#NLPFam, weigh in on the conversation!
In the name of "safety," prosecutors will be able to coerce more guilty pleas using #mandatoryminimums.

Councilmember @CMBrookePinto's Secure DC bill adds two new #MandatoryMinimums and expands five others.
But, you won't see that in her bill summary.
