Add your name: Trump’s attacks on criminal justice reform must stop

Jack,

During President Trump’s first 100 days in office, The Department of Justice (DOJ) terminated the entirety of Vera’s federal funding for public safety programs. 

They didn’t stop there. The DOJ cut hundreds more grants, totalling more than $820 million in criminal justice funding.

Are you OK with that? Add your name >>

These funds support organizations doing on-the-ground, lifesaving work, and cutting them threatens the well-being of the people we serve.  

We cannot let these vital services disappear. Tell Congress: Our communities cannot afford to lose this support. >>

These cuts are not accidental. This administration has repeatedly attacked independent, mission-driven organizations that are a fundamental part of civil society. Its sudden termination of funding for community violence intervention, victim services, youth and criminal justice grants will make neighborhoods less safe.

You can take action by urging Congress to support the programs and people that keep our communities safe. Add your name. >>

This is your chance to make a difference. Tell Congress Trump’s attacks must stop.

In solidarity,
Vera Institute of Justice
