Couldn’t ask for a better group of fellow panelists for the opening plenary @NACOLE_org focused on #prisonoversight in AZ! With @ck94117 @fab_john @theWaltBlackman @Karaeleese30

ATAC is deeply honored to be selected as the National Association of Civilian Oversight of Law Enforcement @NACOLE_org’s recognized organization and award honoree at the 2024 30th Anniversary Annual NACOLE Conference. Absolutely incredible day! Thank you NACOLE!

You talk to any serious, effective law enforcement officer, and they say, "My best tool is my voice." Words deescalate a situation. Chasing a disturbed person around a subway platform shouting and tasing them is just pathetic policing, even before shots were fired.

The @NAACP is urgently calling on Gov. Mike Parson to stop the execution of #MarcellusWilliams. In an open letter, they warned that executing Marcellus would be a “horrible miscarriage of justice” and a reflection of Missouri’s troubling racial past. essence.com/news/naacp-marce…

I grew up listening to Al when the Suns were the only team in town. Every time I turn on a game, I’ll remember how he helped make me a lifelong fan. My thoughts are with his loved ones and the entire Suns family.

An abhorrent piece of legislation that has caused unspeakable horrors, death, and misery.

This is huge, and needed. I hope states that haven’t already done so will follow suit.

As Executive Director of Arizonans for Transparency and Accountability in Corrections @AtacOrg, this victory is particularly inspiring. It reinforces the urgent need for independent oversight here in Arizona. Oversight is about more than just government accountability. It’s about ensuring the safety and effective operations of our correctional facilities. It’s about protecting everyone within these institutions while increasing public safety.

The Federal Prison Oversight Act is now signed into law! Congratulations to everyone who worked so hard to make this law a reality. #prisonoversight
