Yet despite the attention that the federal system gets, most Americans encounter the justice system at the county and state level. It is impossible to end mass incarceration by focusing on just one aspect of this sprawling system. brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…

#SOTU focuses on importance of criminal justice reform. Ending mass incarceration requires us to focus on local, state, and federal reforms. See our @BrennanCenter explainers on why both systems need massive overhaul brennancenter.org/our-work/resea…

Today, the Brennan Center and our partner organizations are in court to argue against the Florida Legislature’s intervention in #Amendment4. We’re standing up for civil rights and the Constitution.

It's been 10 months since white supremacists set fire to a storied civil rights institution. But the FBI's investigation appears to have turned focus toward the victims.
Our expert @rachelblevinson tells @theintercept why this is so distressing.

Travis County is re-examining its court fees and fines system after a recent Brennan Center report revealed that uncollected court debts, which largely impact low-income communities and people of color, ballooned to $18 million between 2012 & 2017. bit.ly/2Gf552Q

To address systemic issues in the criminal justice system, reform and civil rights voices must be included. Moving forward it’s essential that the Commission give a range of experts the opportunity to attend public meetings or provide input as the Commission shapes its report.

As an ex, some prosecutors are now focusing on using diversion & treatment to ensure that people w/mental health & substance abuse problems are treated for their addictions or illnesses instead of spending time locked up behind bars brennancenter.org/our-work/polic…

Also cause for concern: the panel is tasked with looking at refusals by prosecutors to enforce laws or prosecute categories of crimes. Barr has been critical of such discretion, but it’s an approach used by reform-minded prosecutors across the country justice.gov/opa/speech/att…

Lack of representation from the criminal justice reform & civil rights community, public health field, & social service providers means those important viewpoints will not be at the table as the Commission discusses recommendations that affect their work. washingtonpost.com/crime-law/2020…

A new DOJ commission aims to tackle some of the biggest problems in policing, many of which – as the Attorney General said – require solutions beyond the scope of police expertise. So it’s concerning that the panel only includes law enforcement voices. justice.gov/opa/pr/attorne…

Great piece from @JustADCohen @brennancenter detailing reasons why we should be hopeful about both the effort to reform bail in NY and #CriminalJusticeReform efforts around the country, despite significant pushback against these smarter policies. brennancenter.org/our-work/analy…

New (partial) @FBI crime data out today! The FBI’s preliminary 2019 report shows that murder and violent crime fell by 3.9 and 3.1 percent, respectively, in the first half of 2019. That's good news, but it comes with one caveat.: 1/2 ucr.fbi.gov/crime-in-the-u… pic.twitter.com/3KTzgTVyV6
