We must condemn political violence of ANY kind. Every time violence replaces words, our democracy is further diminished and our freedoms are stifled.

R’s are using fear mongering while we use data & proven measures - the Second Look Act does not guarantee release of any individual. It allows a person to request a review of their sentence by the courts AFTER 20 YEARS. These measures are the law in states like CA, OK, CO, NY.

We’re starting debate on the Second Look Act, which will safeguard public safety and make our system more fair. It addresses sentencing disparities by allowing individuals convicted between 18-25 yo to request a review of their sentence only after serving 20 years in prison.
