“Apply for the Dream Fellowship.” “Apply for the Dream Fellowship.”

We are bound together by common challenges. That idea is at the heart of the American experiment. Although we have different backgrounds, values, and ideas, many of the problems we face affect all of us. Take the proposal to destroy acres of pristine wetland for yet another emissions-spewing prison. The feature below on the Letcher County prison demonstrates how interconnected so many problems are. When we start with common challenges, we can build broad coalitions that lead us to solutions that benefit all.

Dream GREEN

What could be worth the loss of 182 acres of land — including 120 acres of pristine forest and three acres of ecologically vital wetlands? According to Congress, it's the construction of a $505 million prison. Experts say the construction of the proposed federal prison development in Letcher County, KY, would likely release thousands of pounds of greenhouse gasses into the environment, house up to 1,200 people & will only perpetuate the over-incarceration of marginalized communities. 

Join Dream.Org and our partners in telling Congress you say YES to the environment and NO to the over imprisonment of your fellow Americans. Sign the petition.
