John,
Dream Corps JUSTICE has big plans for the rest of the year:
- #KeepThemHome
- Sign the EQUAL Act into Law
- Pass Bipartisan Justice Reform
Our team is in DC this week pushing these goals forward, but we need your help to make it happen. Scroll down to check out 3 quick ways you can help the fight for justice right now.
Thank you for your advocacy! — The Dream Corps JUSTICE Team
If you use Twitter and only have a few seconds...
Tweet at your representative to help pass the Bipartisan Criminal Justice Package!
There are 3 bills moving forward in Congress that would build on the First Step Act and reduce long and unjust sentences, bring thousands of people home, and encourage alternatives to incarceration:
- The First Step Implementation Act
- The Safer Detention Act
- The Prohibiting Punishment of Acquitted Conduct Act
Dream Corps members have been strongly fighting for these bills, and now we need to unite our voices. Click here to send a tweet to your representative urging them to pass bipartisan criminal justice reform before the end of the year!
TAKE ACTION!
If you have a few minutes…
Tell Congress to Pass The EQUAL Act!
Despite crack cocaine and powder cocaine being two forms of the same drug, penalties for the possession of crack cocaine is 18 times more severe than those for possessing powder cocaine.
There is simply no scientific justification for such a disparity, yet the consequences of this policy have had a devastating impact on communities of color.
Help end this unfair sentencing discrepancy. Sign our petition in support of the Equal Act!:

If you have 5 minutes or less…
Call The White House to Stop Federal Prison Expansion and #KeepThemHome!
More than 4,000 people were approved to finish out their sentences from home due to COVID-19. Over the past year, they’ve started jobs, enrolled in career courses, and reunited with their families. Now, the Biden Administration is planning to send them back to prison.
Join us in urging President Biden to use his clemency authority to #KeepThemHome!
TAKE ACTION!
