NEWS! Since 2021, over 200 incarcerated people have written to the #EndTheException campaign. They have shared their experiences with slavery. Today, we are launching an archive of their letters. Visit endtheexception.com/letters to read their stories.

“Without Prop 47, I wouldn't have been able to get into transitional housing.” For Anti-Recidivism Coalition (ARC)’s Pam Thompson, the potential rollback of #Prop47 is personal. The services that have helped Thompson and thousands of others are under attack in #California.

Although #Prop36 claims to offer Californians struggling with substance use the choice between prison and treatment, it will slash funding for drug treatment programs. This so-called choice is no choice at all. #NoOnProp36 sacbee.com/news/politics-…

Prop 36 cuts funding for treatment, crime prevention, and victim services—a huge setback for safety. Voting NO on 36 means protecting this essential funding and investing in real safety for our communities. latimes.com/california/sto…
