The BASICs Act (#SB474) passed the Senate! 🥳👏 This important bill would #MarkDownTheMarkUp on canteen items across CA prisons, so incarcerated people can afford basic food & hygiene supplies. Listen to Sen Josh Becker's testimony: youtube.com/watch?v=a9gDK3…

CA has the 2nd highest markup rate on prison canteen items in the nation - overcharging incarcerated ppl & their families by 65% for hygiene items & food needed to survive incarceration. Join us in urging Governor Gavin Newsom to sign SB474! #MarkDownTheMarkUps bit.ly/474Sign
Toothpaste, soap, deodorant, soup. Canteen is a necessity - not a luxury for incarcerated people! Urge Governor Gavin Newsom to sign SB 474 by Senator Josh Becker and reduce the markup on essential canteen items across CA prisons today. #MarkDownTheMarkUp bit.ly/474Sign
Each year incarcerated Californians & their families spend $90M+ on food & basic hygiene supplies at prison canteens. Stop overcharging the most economically disenfranchised people in CA! Help us urge @CaGov to sign #SB474 Senator Josh Becker #MarkDownTheMarkUp bit.ly/474Sign
