Have you or a loved one been denied housing as a result of a drug conviction? 🚨 We want to hear from you! It might be because of The Thurmond Amendment – an old policy preventing some formerly incarcerated people returning home from rebuilding their lives. Help us undo this

The methadone clinic system was built due to racism in healthcare. In 50 years AATOD has lobbied relentlessly against reform that is proven to save lives. Time to remove OTP’s monopoly on RXing & dispensing. If legislators wanted to save lives this would be a no brainer.

Something that is constantly missing form the conversation on overdose: not everyone is suffering. Drugs are pretty awesome. This whole drugs are bad narrative is a bunch of Prohibitionist nonsense. All drugs have purpose, strengths and limitations.

Most organizations don’t lose the fight - they walk away from it. You think you're fine because the bill didn't pass. The agency said nothing. The headlines moved on. But while you’re quiet, someone else is filling the room you left. 🛑 Laws are amended. 🛑 Budgets shift. 🛑

Credit where credit is due, the new Trump administration BOP directive on maximum use of home confinement will make a big difference in getting the incarcerated population down and helping relieve the pressure on correctional officers and prisons I will always give credit

In 2018 we helped pass the #FirstStepAct, which has helped bring 40,000 people home from prison. But we knew the work was not done. This new expansion of home confinement is another positive push towards more second chance opportunities! 📰⬇️ forbes.com/sites/walterpa…

5 hard years. Blood, sweat, & tears. When I came home from prison during COVID & met John Fab, I knew oversight was possible and if anyone could make it happen it was him. He threw open doors, handed me a crash course in AZ politics, & let me run absolutely wild. This win is

I know this is insane, but in a last‑ditch effort to not end up unhoused w/my kids, I’m looking for someone who can lend me $1,600 through Zirtue. Eviction is being filed tomorrow. I have $1,200 of what’s owed, but still need $1,600. Zirtue creates a legal contract and does

I am now unemployed. If ANYONE has any job leads, please send them my way. My husband and I are now both unemployed and I have never been so afraid in my life. 😭 I am skilled in tech sales, campaigning, organizing, and lobbying. Open to anything at this point.
