Hey John, HUGE
news just dropped:

The Louisville Police Department announced that they are firing Officer
Joshua Jaynes for his role in Breonna Taylor’s death. He was the original
person who falsified the warrant that led to the raid on Breonna’s home in
the first place.

Listen. This is only a tiny semblance of justice. It matters. People have
worked around the clock for damn near a year to get this far.

But we can’t let up. Period. We need to keep fighting to transform the
systems that have prevented accountability and answers for Breonna’s
death. Let me break this down, ok?

When the police first launched an investigation into Breonna Taylor’s
death in Louisville, Kentucky the case was brought to Louisville District
Attorney Tom Wine. Wine had the opportunity to lead the charge to bring
justice for Breonna. Instead he chose to recuse himself and pass on the
case to a Republican Trump supporter, Attorney General Daniel Cameron.

Tom Wine is a perfect example of the kind of District Attorney Real
Justice is fighting to replace. There are hundreds of DAs like Tom all
across our country who have repeatedly stood in the way of justice and
have failed to fight for victims of police violence.

District Attorneys are the most powerful elected officials who can hold
police accountable. By electing new ones who share our reform values, we
can transform our current unjust system. DAs can implement policies that
ensure cases like Breonna’s aren’t thrown under the rug and can fight to
hold officers accountable for violence.

This is real progress — this is how we prevent other families from going
through the struggle Breonna’s family has been experiencing. Soon, we plan
on sharing with you our plans for 2021 to elect even more reform-minded
District Attorneys who are determined to break the cycle of police
brutality and lack of accountability.

But before we act on these plans, we need to make sure we have a strong
budget to support more bold candidates running for DA seats next year.

Running in these races isn’t easy. It takes significant resources to
organize volunteers, reach out to voters, and compete against our
heavily-funded opponents.
