Huge thanks to everyone who came out today to call for an end to Death By Incarceration and demand policies that actually stop violence and heal our communities! #AbolishDBI

RIGHT NOW we are in Harrisburg standing proud for second chances.
The time is now to pass geriatric parole, felony murder reform and parole eligibility for lifers so we can reunite families.
Second chances make our communities safer.

“We are not here to speak truth to power, because we know the real power is with the people… our hearts have been broken by the loss of loved ones to violence, to death by incarceration, to lack of healthcare. Our hearts are broken but our spirits are strong.” #AbolishDBI

Today we honor those who have come home from prison — so many people now stand on these steps who were behind bars when CADBI began. #AbolishDBI
