Dear John,

This year, advocates continued to advance meaningful change across the criminal legal system — from restoring voting rights to people with felony convictions and protecting young people from prosecution in adult courts to limiting extreme sentences.

In this issue of Race and Justice News , explore recent reforms and news, including:

* Policy & Legislation: Missouri and Virginia restore voting rights to over 100,000 formerly incarcerated people.

* In the Courts: Pennsylvania ends mandatory life sentences for felony murder.

* Art, Culture, and Storytelling: A new, limited-run newsletter highlights music created behind bars by incarcerated artists.
