Making money off registered people worked so well, they are going abroad. #registrymatters #cjreform https://t.co/XhrIGSre5h.

Follow the money and you'll see pockets lined through backdoor deals. Look how the NC registry is doing this. #registrymatters #cjreform https://t.co/Jx3MZUzaac

TL;DR threat of HIV transmission nets prison time. Consider the facts so we can finally say HIV is not a crime. Lots of misinformed opinions here #registrymatters #cjreform https://t.co/5KYvPweKAw

When we ignore people on the registry and relegate them, unsupported, to the margins remember this: "shame can kill so fast — faster than bullets, because it can move at the speed of 24-hour news cycles and tweets and internet searches" #registrymatters #cjreform https://t.co/V1lEU6G3CT

At the ACSOL Conference with our #registeringwithdignity #reentry handbook. They're free, but if you can provide a donation so we can print additional copies we'd appreciate it. Come find us and get yours before we run out. #registrymatters

@G_Padraic Great resource! Thanks for providing it.

"Ousting a judge because of a lawful but controversial judicial act messes with the principle and reality of fair and impartial courts central to the nation’s democracy. " #registrymatters #cjreform https://t.co/4HrvGFgzjB

"The next person to come before a California judge might be a far less privileged defendant, hoping for mercy and less likely to get it." #registrymatters #cjreform https://t.co/0d0XbxQ1TC

Hmm. It's like they haven't heard of a little thing called #decrim. Instead, they have to find every possible opportunity to shut off avenues to economic and social wellbeing. #benicetosexworkers #registrymatters #cjreform https://t.co/ekJHDKri0X

It's always nice to see Dems and Rs working together... to beat up sex workers. (To be clear: it's not nice. And shame on you @SenWarren.)

Propositions someone 3 years younger than him for sex and receives a felony + lifetime registration. If engaged in sex, a misdemeanor. Something doesn't add up. SORN systems are capricious mistresses indeed.. https://t.co/XbMPrjOoTo #registrymatters #cjreform

Forgiveness is a funny thing. You'd be more apt to letting Luke live if you stopped defining his entire life by an act he committed at 15. At some pt he, like so many others, deserves an opp to move on. So 2 do those harmed https://t.co/0FX9luFHOb #registrymatters #cjreform

Another country finds that registries are ineffective strategies for combatting sexual harm. #registrymatters Not surprising that the exact same conclusions on effectiveness are drawn. https://t.co/K4R2aNiy8k

Registered for 25 years for a crime he committed at 20 years old. Now back in jail for not updating his address. Let's talk about how having a criminal conviction keeps you system involved for a lifetime. #stillnotfree #registrymatters https://t.co/UY1n84Wx7h

Major contributor to mass criminalization is prosecutorial power. #cjreform advocates understand it. Pay attention to how the most marginalized is treated because the steps are tiny. https://t.co/ukqup6AfQX #registrymatters

Well, this makes sense. Someone who knows nothing about prison reform will advise someone who will do nothing about prison reform. https://t.co/T8BoPspNlX

Incredible the advocate picked this up: "No research exists to suggest the 20 states with civil commitment laws have lower rates of sexual violence or recidivism, compared to rates in the 30 states without such laws." #registrymatters #cjreform @tmeronek https://t.co/fbpdZF7KdK
