John,
Extreme sentences are cruel, often racially biased, and not necessary to protect public safety. That’s why The Sentencing Project and the Vera Institute of Justice recommend capping sentences at a maximum of 20 years in prison and lowering other sentences proportionately.
The Sentencing Project and the Vera Institute of Justice invite you to join a virtual discussion of the devastating toll of extreme sentencing, the rationale for lower sentences, how we can cap maximum sentences at 20 years, and reform already underway across the country.
