John, we've scored key victories this month for justice reform – including some of the most significant political victories that we’ve been a part of:
✅ George Gascón announced sweeping reforms in what has been the most incarcerated city in the country (on his first day in office!)
✅ Jason Williams secured his victory as the new District Attorney in New Orleans, ushering in a new era of reform
✅ Kim Foxx was sworn in for a second term as Cook County State’s Attorney and will build on her progress for transformative justice
These victories are HUGE. But we have even bigger plans ahead. There are nearly 2,400 elected prosecutors in the United States, and several of those seats are up for election next year. We need your help to keep our momentum up.
Your donation will go directly toward keeping our fearless team of organizers in the game – and our digital tools running. Together, we can keep changing the justice system from the inside out.
As we speak, George Gascón is already hard at work, implementing some of the most sweeping reforms of any District Attorney’s first moves in office. From ending cash bail to ending the practice of charging children as adults – his reforms will impact millions of lives. The human suffering spared will be massive.
And with Jason Williams as the new District Attorney of New Orleans, we can’t wait to see what fearless reform-based policies he plans to implement for the betterment of our communities.
However, we are still up against some of the most powerful, heavily-funded law enforcement groups in the nation – and they will spend big to maintain the status quo. But our milestones so far give us confidence that together, we can rise to the challenge. Your donations, time, and efforts are needed to continue propelling our movement forward. That is why we are asking:
Thank you for your support,
Team Real Justice
