WOW. Liz Oyer, the former DOJ pardon attorney wrongfully fired, spells out EXACTLY how unjust the January 6th insurrectionists’ pardons are. 🔥

The real shortage in this country isn't gas or eggs or lumber. It's leadership, decency, and basic common sense.

Thank you @PeteButtigieg Please Louder so the people in the back can hear!

If you're a billionaire, $10 eggs might be just a "little disturbance." For most Americans it's a real issue.

Leadership is doubling down, but GOP members are getting nervous about the budget’s extreme unpopularity. You can call your Representative now at 202-224-3121.

Families deserve accurate and respectful communication with their incarcerated loved ones. The BOP’s careless copying of letters—riddled with errors & omissions—only deepens the divide. We must do better to uphold dignity and strengthen family connections. #UV4SOR #FamiliesMatter

Trump Admin fired all of the US Attorneys appointed by Biden, informed them by email, and sent the messages to the wrong email addresses. Not just classless, but incompetent, too. buff.ly/4hIjTqZ

Despicable. As families grieve, Trump should be leading, not lying. We put safety first, drove down close calls, grew Air Traffic Control, and had zero commercial airline crash fatalities out of millions of flights on our watch. President Trump now oversees the military and the FAA. One of his first acts was to fire and suspend some of the key personnel who helped keep our skies safe. Time for the President to show actual leadership and explain what he will do to prevent this from happening again.

The greatest threat we face, is not simply their actions. But our silence.

Number of words in Trump’s inaugural address about renaming the Gulf of Mexico, renaming Denali mountain, and retaking the Panama Canal: 213. Number of words about making housing, health care, or child care more affordable: Zero.

We must abolish the death penalty.

In Michigan... we send parents to prison for a decade after the state sends their child to prison for life as an Adult. Seems we have a catch 22.

In March of 2020, COVID-19 was killing thousands of people a day across the world with no end in sight. Among the most vulnerable were U.S. prisoners. Lawmakers from both parties recognized that people in prison with no history of violence, who had medical vulnerabilities, or who committed nonviolent offenses could be safely removed from prisons and put on home confinement to lower the risk of COVID spreading. Congress went to work and passed the CARES Act unanimously in the Senate and with all but a handful of votes in the House, and it was immediately signed into law by President Trump. Home Confinement has not only proved to be enormously successful in keeping people out of prison, but has proven to save taxpayers a tremendous amount of money. This program has allowed people to begin the process of reintegrating into society. They have jobs, go to school, and take care of their families. Now, some Republican Senators want to end this successful program and return people who have successfully returned to their communities to prison. This makes no sense. Sending thousands of people who are successfully complying with home confinement requirements back to prison is morally wrong and fiscally irresponsible.  We should protect Home Confinement and continue this successful program.

I would think among other requirements that people who hold office should have at the very minimum the capability to understand logic ~ Senator Cotton surely has a huge deficit.

Please use humanizing language for incarcerated & formally incarcerated individuals. There is no context where we should be dehumanizing humans.

We were really excited to join our community and legislative partners in MA last week as @MassGovernor ceremonially signed the bill that made all prison and jail communication free across the state. The bill went into effect on 12/1 and the impact has already been monumental!

David Carrillo holds a position that is extremely rare in prison: He’s an incarcerated professor teaching in a prison bachelor’s degree program through Adam’s State. He is one of the first to be employed in Colorado as an incarcerated professor. chalkbeat.org/colorado/2024/… @SCSCNow
