Listen to MG bravely share his experiences as it pertains to SARA - a counterproductive banishment law - on the @NYCLU podcast, along with RAF board member and sociologist @HorowitzEmily The state should not be legislating anyone into homelessness

LISTEN: SARA is billed as a way to protect New Yorkers from people who could harm children. But research shows these types of geographical restrictions don’t increase public safety. nyclu.org/podcast/this-l…

“The idea that, in the name of survivors, we would be mutilating people’s bodies is an affront to people who have survived sexual violence,” said @amberspeaksup, executive director of @RestoreAlliance - This Louisiana bill is barbaric & counterproductive. nytimes.com/2024/06/04/us/…

We applaud @NYCLU and their brave plaintiffs for this litigation to overturn an unfair practice that destabilizes people in reentry. Policies like SARA that prioritize perpetual punishment over prevention practices, rehabilitation & survivor services are counterproductive.

4/ Banishment is not how we should treat formerly incarcerated individuals. The Constitution requires that people convicted of sexual offenses are not subjected to unnecessary and vague restrictions that curb their ability to reintegrate into society. Our statement:

Humans grow & change. We stand with the @RAPPcampaign and others to end the culture of exclusion in reform efforts. All people should have access to real relief from system injustices & the opportunity to be part of community solutions.
Release Aging People in Prison Campaign@RAPPcampaign

This week we were at Cardozo Law School talking about building a human justice movement without exclusions, led by 9 formerly incarcerated leaders who served 268 years. All do incredible work improving safety. All were excluded from NY's Clean Slate & many other reforms. (1/x)

We want to live in a world where preventing, healing and transforming serious harm are prioritized above vengeance, where people's varied accomplishments are valued, and where permanent punishment goes extinct. Where no one is excluded.

THREAD. Across the U.S., hundreds of thousands of children have been banned from visiting their parents who are awaiting trial in local jails. Why? A conspiracy to make money. We just filed two landmark civil rights lawsuits to stop it, but the story is unbelievable.

Our Public Policy and Advocacy Team gained huge legislative wins last year. One of their biggest victories, protecting children from police deception tactics, was with the help of the Innocence Project. To our friends at the Innocence Project, thank you. acluct.org/en/publication…

Safety is up to all of us! “This idea that landlords are at odds with people living with a record is just silliness… We all have a stake in the safety of our communities and our communities are safer when everyone has fair access to housing.” - @amberspeaksup
