There are trans Americans right now looking out at this world and wondering if anyone is going to stand up for them and for their simple right to exist. Well, I am. We are. We will.

A great reminder about the promise of #DrugCourts by Steve Belenko. This model can reduce substance use and crime, improve lives and save money. But we need to continue to do better in terms of access, treatment, and the use of EBP. www.vitalcitynyc.org/articles/mak...

Research suggests that drug courts are effective at reducing crime and incarceration. So why aren’t they universally embraced by the criminal justice reform movement?

Executive wants to frame the NIH indirects cut as $4B in savings. But given that NIH returns $2.5 on every $1 investment, this would actually cost US economy a net $6 BILLION (per year!). Not to mention the human costs of wrecking education and research sectors and the communities they serve.

NIH directly supports the economy through investments in research institutions and job formation.

Older people now make up 5x as much of the prison population as they did three decades ago. Turning prisons into “makeshift nursing homes” is one of the nation’s most wasteful, morally bankrupt experiments to date. And it certainly doesn’t make our communities safer.
