Biden must act now to block Trump's brutal plans.
ACLU <[link removed]>
ACLU Supporter, as President Biden considers his presidential legacy, he should use his executive clemency powers to commute the sentences of those on federal death row.
Despite making history for openly opposing the death penalty while on the campaign trail, President Biden has yet to take permanent action and commute any federal death sentence.
But there's still time. With one month left in office, President Biden can and must use the powers of his office to commute the sentence of the people on federal death row – a step towards addressing the injustice of the federal death penalty and preventing Donald Trump from being able to execute an unprecedented number of people, like he did last time.
The death penalty is a morally bankrupt, racist tool of injustice. Tell President Biden to honor the commitments he made on the campaign trail and commute all federal death sentences now. <[link removed]>

The consequences are dire if Biden doesn't act now.
In Donald Trump's first term, he oversaw more executions than any other president in the last 120 years – including the executions of people who were sentenced as teenagers, people with severe mental health conditions, and one man whose Alzheimer's disease left him unable to understand the reason for his execution. And Trump is planning on expanding his use of the death penalty in his second term – even proposing the death penalty for drug-related offenses or leaking information about him to the press.
President Biden has the power to address the broken federal death penalty system – but he must do it now.
Send a message now: President Biden must prevent irreversible miscarriages of justice. Tell him to commute the row and block President-elect Trump's brutal plans. <[link removed]>
