“In 30 days you could lose your household, job, and essentially your life as you know it for not even committing a crime. Probation was designed to keep an eye on a defendants and prevent people from going back to prison, but the system isn’t doing that” - @MeekMill

On January 23, we launched @Reform . Today, our board got together to talk about what we’ve accomplished, and how much more we have to do. Thank you all for your time, energy, and commitment to freeing people trapped in our broken justice system. #FightDifferent

OUR MASKS ARRIVED AT COOK COUNTY JAIL! Last week, we were heartbroken to see the messages from inside the jail, so we included a note for people living & working inside. Yes, you DO matter, & you are not forgotten ❤️ Thank you @bailproject @PairofThieves @Madonna @cut_50 !

Probation and parole should set people up for success NOT failure. Once your time is done you should be able to enter society with dignity and opportunity. RT if you agree.

Demetrius @Jifunzaa —a returning citizen who helped lead the movement to expand felony voting rights in Florida in 2018—just voted for his first time 👏 The pastor & father of three believes “everyone deserves to have a voice.” We agree! 💛 @FLRightsRestore #SecondChanceVoters

"The beauty of REFORM is that it was born out of the experience of one Black man, @MeekMill . A Black man who was sentenced to 2-4 years in prison for a technical violation. There are millions of people in America who don’t get as much attention or support." - @RobertRooks5

Roughly 165,000 people incarcerated in the U.S. are over the age of 55. The @CDCgov says older adults are at a higher risk of serious illness from COVID-19. We need to parole people over the age of 65 who are unlikely to commit new crimes.
