📣UPDATE📣 #AB2065 (@Ash_Kalra) advanced today! Building off of the historic Racial Justice Act (#AB2542 & #AB256), AB 2065 improves access to critical data that helps people seeking relief under #RJA and reduces the burden of records production for agencies. #RJA4All #CAleg
🚨 Big News! AB 2178 (Ting) just passed the Assembly Public Safety Committee! 🎉 🏛️ Next up: The Appropriations Committee! #YesOnAB2178 #AB2178 #ClosePrisonsSaveBillions
Today, we called on the CA Supreme Court to review whether CA's death penalty statute is racially discriminatory & unconstitutional under the Equal Protection guarantees of the state Constitution. drive.google.com/file/d/1Hgt3_h… @ACLU_NorCal @ellabakercenter @ACLU
In LA, drug checking services have already helped health officials understand changes in the unregulated drug supply to get ahead of the next wave of the overdose crisis. #AB2136 clarifies the legality of accessing & providing these services in CA to help reduce overdose deaths.
Over 50 organizations in support of #AB2178 (@PhilTing) which would help save state dollars currently being used to sustain empty prison beds for opportunities to redirect spending to other critical needs such as education, housing, and other social services. #CloseCAPrisons
Join the Record Cleaning & Know Your Rights Workshop with @Laney_College, East Bay Community Center, @LegalAidWorks and @ROOTandREBOUND 🕙 Tuesday, May 7th @ 11AM - 1:30 PM 📍Laney College Bistro @ 900 Fallon St. Oakland, CA
Survivors of domestic violence and intimate partner violence deserve meaningful solutions, not failed carceral responses. #AB2470 would expand the draconian Three Strikes law. Read more: bit.ly/dv-oppose-ab24… 1/2
📢 Tomorrow, AB 2160 goes before the Assembly Public Safety Committee! The CA Women's Care Act prioritizes maternal-infant bonding by providing alternatives to incarceration for pregnant/postpartum mothers while fostering healthier outcomes for families.
Please join us tomorrow! Our folks inside can hear us! The BOP is continuing to transfer people despite the judge’s order and our own legal action and advocacy. We will not stop fighting for our loved ones here and in BOP cages everywhere.
We agree that #CAleg must enact policies to better prevent and respond to domestic violence and intimate partner violence – but not by expanding the draconian Three Strikes law. That's why we oppose #AB2470. Read our letter to @AsmKevinMcCarty: bit.ly/dv-oppose-ab24…
Survivors of domestic violence and intimate partner violence deserve meaningful solutions, not failed carceral responses. That's why we are proud to join orgs that serve DV/IPV survivors and advocate for criminal justice in opposing #AB2470. Read more: bit.ly/dv-oppose-ab24…
📣 RELEASES NOT TRANSFERS 📣 📣 HOLD BOP ACCOUNTABLE 📣 📣 LIFT ICE DETAINERS 📣
BAY AREA! 📢 Tomorrow (Friday) from 9AM - 11AM we will rally near FCI Dublin demanding RELEASES not transfers as the BOP works to abruptly close the prison & ship people far away. Why? To dodge our lawsuit, silence survivor organizing, and hide from long overdue accountability.
🚨LWOP sentences are racist, inhumane, costly, and do not contribute to public safety. 📝Submit a letter to the editor urging justice for people serving LWOP (life without parole). Use this toolkit to make your voice heard 📲 tinyurl.com/SDUTlett #CareNotCages
Last year, we were proud to co-sponsor and pass #SB474 (@SenJoshBecker) to reduce the mark up on items sold in CA prison commissaries. But the work in CA and other states isn't over. More from @elizabethweill & @EthanSCorey in @theappeal ⤵️ theappeal.org/locked-in-pric…

@CAgovernor We must use our collective voice to advocate for supportive services, not criminalization! Criminalization will not end sexual violence.
With the reality of survivors’ choices and voices narrowing and organizations not being able to provide essential services becoming a reality if #CALeg doesn’t step up, we must call on @CAgovernor and our state leaders to save crime victim services.
We are proud to join organizations that serve DV/IPV survivors in opposing🚫#AB2470. @sfdefender proudly co-sponsors ✅#AB2354 (@AsmMiaBonta), which helps DV/IPV survivors clear their records and move forward with their lives. 2/2

Last week, CURB took to the state capitol urging the #CALeg to commit to closing at least 5 more prisons & cutting CDCr's $14.6 billion budget. 🤔While lawmakers consider cutting & delaying millions from social services, climate change responses, housing & more to lessen CA's…
If #SB1011 passes in California, homelessness will be criminalized statewide. Criminalization would only make homelessness worse. People experiencing homelessness need housing and services NOT criminalization. That’s why over 100 organizations are urging #NOonSB1011.
We need to move forward on homelessness - and passing SB 1011 would only move California backwards. The Senate Public Safety Committee must vote NO on SB 1011 @aishabbwahab @SteveBradford @Scott_Wiener @NancySkinnerCA #NOonSB1011
