John–

For the first time in 19 years, Lonnie and Lyle Jones are home with their
families for the holidays. Just last year, the two brothers were serving
life sentences for drug offenses, with little hope of ever coming home.
Now, they are celebrating with their families after being freed by the
First Step Act. Tens of thousands of others have been released early from
federal prison this year. 

But Lonnie and Lyle say they “won’t be complete” until everyone serving an
unjust sentence is home too–and it’s important to show how many people
stand alongside them.

Just in time for the holidays, we’re sending a Welcome Home card to
promise to never stop fighting to close prison doors and unlock doors of
opportunities. Sign a card and we’ll deliver it to people freed under the
First Step Act.

The First Step Act showed us that when we unite unlikely allies in the
spirit of deep patriotism to stick up for marginalized people, we can
deliver real change even in divided times–that’s what the Dream Corps and
our programs #cut50, Green for All, and Tech are all about.

Just ask Susie Smith. Susie was freed under the First Step Act after
almost a decade behind bars. But her two sons are still serving life
sentences. Susie won’t give up until her whole family is home for the
holidays – and our Welcome Home cards will promise we won’t give up,
either.

Right now, there are people sharing hot food and laughter with their loved
ones instead of sitting in a cold, dark cell. Don’t let anyone tell you
the world is too broken for us to make progress. That’s what Dream Corps
is all about.

Thanks for everything you do,
The Dream Corps Team

P.S. As we near the end of 2019, our plans for 2020 are rapidly ramping
up. [ [link removed] ]Can you chip in before the end of the year to help power our
progress through next year and beyond?
