Don’t hold another “rally” at the Gov’s NYC office.
1. You don’t even know if she’s going to be there.
2. She’s not the main pressure point here.
3. It’s an ineffective tactic for photo-ops with bullhorns and signs that won’t move the goal forward at all.

Watch how many mediocre non-profits pimp out the story of Robert Brooks to raise money. Kalief Browder 2.0.

Check out the recording of this event I hosted with my @CouncilonCJ Centering Justice co-leader @KhaCumberbatch on immigration & crime! Our esteemed panel of experts @DLind, @KenCuccinelli & @cekubrin provided substance, not the salaciousness that is sadly pervading this topic.
12 Sep 2024
The connection between immigration & crime is a hot topic in the 2024 election, and CCJ’s Centering Justice team recently led a bipartisan discussion on the subject. Read a summary or listen to the full recording at: counciloncj.org/event-record…

Seismic shift in ideology & approach to prison reentry in the US.
Happy to have served on the Health and Reentry Project (HARP) w/ @VWachino & @TeamWaxman on this issue. Learn more here - counciloncj.org/health-and-r…
Much more to do, but this win needs to be acknowledged.
Ice broken on 57-year freeze on Medicaid for people in prisons/jails.
See brief from Health and Reentry Project (HARP) @CouncilonCJ @VWachino @TeamWaxman
for how this can prevent overdose deaths and save lives.

A lot of talk about what victims of crime want/need, but @CouncilonCJ actually sat down and listened to them.
Read what they had to say.

What do crime victims, formerly incarcerated people, and their family members have to say about the purpose and impacts of long prison sentences? A CCJ task force asked them, and we’re sharing their perspectives today.

Q6. Let’s talk about civic engagement. People with a criminal record, who have served their time, are often unable to vote, serve on a jury, or be elected to political office. How do these limitations hurt public safety goals? #SecondChanceMonth

A4 - one of the biggest barriers is the continued use of language that subtlety (and sometimes not so subtlety) reinforce negative and harmful stereotypes/characterizations for people with criminal convictions.

Q4. People with a criminal record face barriers to education, housing, jobs, transportation, and healthcare. How do these practically impact public safety? #SecondChanceMonth

Valuable and encouraging data on #Rikers supervised release program. Only 9% re-arrested over six months for a violation of terms or new offense and less than 1% re-arrested for a violent felony. More than 400 referrals for services such as job placement and housing.

Umm, no you used the word "imbecile."
28 Sep 2021
No, sorry I don't deal in mistruths and myths. There are others way more versed in that aspect.
And no, non-violent crimes and misdemeanors aren't the same.
28 Sep 2021
Saying the NYPD is "working for victims" is like saying health insurance companies are "working" for insurees.
If the NYPD wants to show they're working for victims, then have better clearance rates (to start).
28 Sep 2021
Great, you're well-rounded. Next time post those, don't just read them.
I read some stuff from the NY Post, but would NEVER share it.
28 Sep 2021
Out of all the articles from the Daily News on CJ issues, you share the one written by @NYPDShea & filled w/ a ton of hypotheticals & mistruths.
And, yes, poor & abysmal clearance rates are solely law enforcement's to own.
But thanks for joining the webinar last week.
