Ahead of tonight's State of the Union address, we and @valuefamilies urge President Biden to remember immigrant families & take action to support them by:

🧡 Recapturing unused green cards
🧡 Expanding family reunification parole programs

#HeartsAtHome #Visas4Families #SOTU

In September, IL became the first state to completely #EndMoneyBail .

Now we're working with @StateRepWest & Sen. Elgie Sims to pass the Pretrial Success Act, an appropriations request to expand access to services for people awaiting trial.

Learn more: endmoneybond.org/2024/02/27/ann…

Three years ago today, Governor JB Pritzker signed the Pretrial Fairness Act into law!

Today, no one passing through Illinois courts is forced to pay for their freedom while awaiting trial! Thank you, Gov. Pritzker, for making Illinois’ pretrial system fairer & more just.
