What happened to justice reinvestment in RI? The House is sched. to vote on H 7630 today, which would drastically raise prison sentences for drivers who cause the injury/death of another person, w/out any basis to believe it'll work to reduce these accidents. We OPPOSE this bill.

The @RIACLU is warning the legislation could impinge on First Amendment rights. “The bill’s focus on ‘media in election communications’ seeks to regulate speech in the sphere that the First Amendment most fundamentally applies to — the political process.” bostonglobe.com/2024/03/11/met…

Thanks @OTDRhodeIsland for this post. Some background: John Gordon (1815 – 1845) of #Pawtucket, the last person executed by the state of #RhodeIsland, was wrongfully convicted due to anti-immigrant & religious prejudice & posthumously pardoned @NEInnocence @RIACLU @AGNeronha
#OTD February 11, 1852, Rhode Island became one of the 1st states to outlaw capital punishment, otherwise known as the death penalty. No execution has taken place in the state since 1845, making it the state with the longest streak of no capital punishment in the United States.

No Rhode Island city escapes the harms of mass incarceration, but the burden of imprisonment falls hardest on some of the state’s least poorest areas. prisonpolicy.org/origin/ri/2020…
Our new report w/ @PrisonPolicy, @RIACLU & Redistricting Data Hub puts data behind what we already know: the communities that are most under-resourced are likely to be most over-incarcerated. Report: prisonpolicy.org/origin/ri/2020…
Rhode Island has a mass incarceration problem, but the pain of this policy failure isn’t felt equally across the state. We teamed up with @RIACLU, @commoncauseri & Redistricting Data Hub to show exactly which communities are most harmed. prisonpolicy.org/origin/ri/2020…
Honored to join this important event. Since my first Banned Books event years ago, we’ve seen an alarming rise in attacks on ideas, expression & freedom. Banning books is not the American way. 📚 🇺🇸
