Content warning: This email discusses the death penalty



Yesterday, the Republican Governor of South Carolina, Henry McMaster,
signed a bill requiring some people on death row to choose between a
firing squad or the electric chair for their own execution.

Make no mistake: the cruelty is the point.

Congress must act with urgency to pass the Federal Death Penalty
Prohibition Act, Ayanna’s transformative bill to abolish the federal death
penalty and require re-sentencing of those currently on death row.

the death penalty on the federal level once and for all?

State-sanctioned murder is not justice, and it never will be. The death
penalty — which disproportionately kills people who are Black, Latinx, and
poor — does absolutely nothing to make our communities safer. It is a
devastating tool of oppression, and it has no place in our society.

That’s why we’re mobilizing the political will necessary to put an end to
this draconian, cruel practice on the federal level — and our nationwide
movement is gaining momentum.

More than 90 members of Congress and 265 national and grassroots
organizations have joined in support of this bill — but Ayanna needs you
with her in this fight for justice.

[ [link removed] ]Sign on to become a grassroots co-sponsor of the Federal Death Penalty
Prohibition Act to officially and permanently end the practice of
state-sanctioned murder in the federal government.

Together, we will keep up the fight to transform our criminal injustice
system.

In solidarity,

The A-Team
