LANDMARK DECISION: A judge found that @AZCorrections systematically violates the constitutional rights of persons incarcerated in state prisons. This is a victory for the Constitution and a vindication for the many thousands who have endured the appalling conditions in AZ prisons

The 50th anniversary of Furman is an opportune moment for the US administration and members
of Congress to be reminded that the world is waiting for the USA to do what almost 100 countries have achieved during this past half century – total abolition of the death penalty.

As we absorb today's devastating news from the Supreme Court, please don't forget about pregnant people who are incarcerated. Those in states where abortion is banned will not have the option of traveling elsewhere.

The end of Roe means more targeting and criminalization of marginalized communities and will have disastrous consequences for people in prisons and jails. Racial and economic justice means abortion access for all. jlusa.org/roe

The Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade opens the door for states to pursue the arrest, prosecution, and incarceration of people who seek or provide abortions, as well as those who help others obtain them. theappeal.org/supreme-court-…

There is a clear thread between #RoeVsWade and criminal-legal reform. This is a perfect example of how over-criminalization keeps people in cycles of poverty and incarceration. The implications of this decision will be absolutely horrific and VERY expensive for taxpayers.
