Imagine waiting 20 years to honor your parents, only for the system to say no. 💔 Charles "Duke" Tanner and his brothers faced this heartbreaking reality when supervised release blocked them from spreading their parents' ashes together. Everyone deserves the space to grieve and say goodbye. Our justice system should uplift families, not tear them apart during moments of profound loss. It's time for a change that prioritizes healing and human dignity. Ready to help build a system that puts families first? Become a REFORMer today. tr.ee/jxRTUvC3u6

In 1961, a Florida pool hall was robbed. The only eyewitness identified Clarence Earl Gideon as the culprit. Gideon was arrested and charged. When he asked the court for a lawyer to defend him, he was told no. So Gideon, who had no legal training and no money to hire an attorney, defended himself in court. He was convicted and sent to prison. From his cell, he drafted a handwritten petition to the United States Supreme Court. In Gideon v. Wainwright, the Court ruled that the Sixth Amendment guarantees the right to counsel for any defendant subject to criminal prosecution, regardless of their ability to pay. The ruling transformed criminal justice in America and created the modern-day public defense system. Every day in courtrooms all across America, public defenders are on the frontlines protecting this essential American right. On this Gideon Day, we give thanks for these heroic public servants.

“After starting a business, being a success, getting married, being an ordained minister…still if I just wanted to cross the state line to help my daughter fix her car, I had to get permission.” Daniel Lynn Brown went on the @jfradioshow Show to call on Congress to pass the Safer Supervision Act, so that the system can return to its intended purpose: keeping people safe. “This is not soft on crime. This is a common-sense approach.” We couldn’t agree more. Sign up to show your support. tr.ee/jxRTUvC3u6

📣 HOT OFF THE PRESS 📣 Our CEO @JessicaJackson just published an op-ed in @TheHill urging Congress to pass the Safer Supervision Act. “For years,” she writes, “our country has had the wrong debate about crime. We have been told that we have to choose between being tough and being smart, between accountability and second chances, between law and order and reform. That is a false choice.” The First Step Act proved that taking a data driven and outcomes focused approach to public safety can reduce recidivism and produce positive outcomes for people in the justice system and communities. The Safer Supervision Act is the next logical step Congress should take. Check out the rest of the op-ed and spread the word: 🔗 tr.ee/WcqXivNTW6

"The safest communities focus on what actually reduces crime. The First Step Act was grounded in that reality. The Safer Supervision Act builds on it. Together, they represent a results-driven approach that aligns with President Trump’s agenda to restore law and order in this country." @tolmanbrett @REFORM thehill.com/opinion/crimin…

What JAY-Z has actually been doing “behind the scenes”.

REFORM Alliance@REFORM

🎉 IT’S OFFICIAL: HB 149 / SB 136 has passed the VA General Assembly. Now it heads to @SpanbergerForVA's desk to be signed into law. If signed, this bill creates a clear path to early termination for people who have worked hard and done everything right while on probation—complied with the conditions of their supervision, maintained employment, completed treatment, and demonstrated they are not a public safety risk to the community. That means: ✅ Individuals are empowered to earn their way out of the system ✅ Probation officers can focus on higher-risk cases ✅ More Virginians can participate in the workforce ✅ Public safety resources are directed where they matter most Governor Spanberger, let’s finish the job. 💪

🚨 ACTION ALERT: Congress is considering the #SaferSupervisionAct, and your voice matters. Sign now: tr.ee/MoZ3oRYKH9 Federal supervision was created to protect public safety and support successful reentry. But over time, it’s grown too large and unfocused — stretching probation officers thin, wasting taxpayer dollars, and pulling attention away from real threats to our safety. The #SaferSupervisionAct restores supervision to its original mission: ✔ Focused on real public safety ✔ Rooted in accountability ✔ Designed to help people succeed With bipartisan support from 100+ organizations nationwide, this is a real opportunity to fix a system that lost its way. 🔗 Congress is deciding now. Add your name. tr.ee/MoZ3oRYKH9

Andre spent 10 years on probation despite doing everything right: pursuing education, building a business, participating in treatment, and making steady progress. Despite being promised the opportunity for early termination by his probation officer after two years, he ended up serving his full 10-year term. For far too long, Virginians like Andre have needlessly spent years of their lives under supervision, with their progress and achievements going unrewarded. Now, all of that can change. Join Andre in celebrating the passage of HB 149/SB 136, legislation that would create a simple, common-sense path off probation. Under this law, if you've complied with the terms of your probation, demonstrated rehabilitation, made positive progress toward stability, and are not a risk to the community, you can be recommended for early termination. We look forward to Governor Spanberger signing this bill into law. Sign up to show your support. tr.ee/jxRTUvC3u6

Exciting news from VA!! As a former probation officer, I’ve seen people work incredibly hard to rebuild their lives while on supervision. When someone has done everything right, there should be a clear path forward. This bill recognizes that progress, encourages personal responsibility, and reflects a simple truth: accountability and second chances can go hand in hand.

Charles “Duke” Tanner (@dukegotlife) was a pro boxer trying to provide for his family. But “the money wasn't coming fast enough,” he says, “So I chose the streets—because that’s what I knew.” His first-time drug offense led to a double life sentence meant Duke had to leave his 2-year-old son behind. Determined to be reunited with his family, Duke spent nearly 2 years writing to the White House. He was eventually released in 2020 thanks to Pardon Czar @alicemariefree. But coming home didn't mean freedom; he was bound by punitive supervision conditions. “Instead of helping you get a job or do the right thing, they’ll violate you.” In 2025, he got a presidential pardon from President Trump. Now, Duke is using his story to advocate for The Safer Supervision Act. This bill would modernize federal supervision so people who are working, supporting their families, and staying on track aren’t trapped under outdated rules. ✍️ Add your name to the petition to help pass this bill. 🔗 tr.ee/MoZ3oRYKH9 #Supervision #SecondChances #REFORMAlliance #SaferSupervisionAct

🚨 What if you earned your release, and were still kept in prison? “The First Step Act was designed to confront an epidemic of over-sentencing, particularly for non-violent and first-time offenders. Its purpose was straightforward: to move eligible inmates out of prison earlier and into structured pre-release custody so they could work, pay taxes, secure housing, and reconnect with their families while still under supervision.” In a new op-ed in The Hill, Peter Navarro, White House Senior Counselor for Trade and Manufacturing, (@RealPNavarro) argues the law isn’t being carried out as written, and thousands of eligible people aren’t getting the time credits they earned. A recent Government Accountability Office report found that nearly 30,000 people were kept behind bars longer than legally allowed. It gets worse: - 65,000 late payments to contractors - $12.5 million in penalties - Halfway houses paid late about 70% of the time - 71% didn't receive the time credits they earned Passing a law is step one. Real impact only happens when it is implemented correctly with the resources and oversight to make it work. Read Peter Navarro’s full op-ed: tr.ee/V88KdH34HQ

Over-supervising low-risk individuals doesn’t make us safer — it stretches the limited resources of the justice system and wastes taxpayer dollars. ROC Senior Fellow @TheJaRonSmith discussed how the Safer Supervision Act would refocus federal supervision where it matters most: on real public safety threats 👇

Wallace spent 19 years in federal prison. When he came home, he got his life on track. He got a job and paid his restitution. And in the short span of just five years, he had earned his associate, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees. All while caring for his mom who was suffering from cancer. But none of that mattered. On a family trip, he was pulled over and detained for an hour while police waited for the federal probation office to open for the day just to confirm he had permission to travel. He did. This is federal supervision right now. Probation officers stretched thin by high caseloads, spending precious time on verification calls instead of focusing on the cases that actually need attention. This doesn't make anyone safer. It punishes people on supervision who are working hard to move their lives forward. The Safer Supervision Act would change this. It would allow people like Wallace, who are committed to rehabilitation, reentry, and a law-abiding life, to successfully complete supervision. It would mean officers being able to focus their resources where it matters most: on higher-risk individuals who need more monitoring and support. And it would mean families like Wallace's can just keep driving. Safer Supervision is common sense. But it’s also common ground, with 79% of voters in support. It's not a left-or-right issue. It's common sense. Tell your members of Congress to support the Safer Supervision Act. tr.ee/MoZ3oRYKH9 #SaferSupervisionAct
