Staggering statistic. Trump had '44 people who either served in his cabinet or had a cabinet-level staff position.... 40 of them said not only would they never work for him again, they wouldn't vote for him.'

Great to have Eli Northrup join my class today at Columbia: chatting with students about law and organizing, and why we need to elect more public defenders to office!

Every tenant facing eviction deserves a lawyer protecting their rights in housing court. And the lawyers doing that essential work deserve fair pay, decent benefits, and manageable caseloads.

We must invest in legal services work. I stand with MFJ Union On Strike.

It’s me. I’m “Witness.”

And nearly a year after this hearing, the increasingly-normalized extremism, hate, and disinformation on display from officials like MTG should still frighten all of us.

Police are the leading cause of death for young Black men, and the sixth leading cause of death for *all* young men.

Today, Excessive Punishment: How the Justice System Creates Mass Incarceration was released by Columbia Univ Press. This anthology explores & reimagines the U.S. justice system: cup.columbia.edu/book/excessive…. In End Mandatory Minimums, I call for a paradigm shift rather than a pendulum swing:

A Republican-backed dark money group has jumped into the race to support my opponent. This is not the answer that Upper West Siders need or deserve.

Groundbreaking report on excessive sentences from Scrutinize finds (among other things) that two NY judges had 39 sentences deemed excessive by appellate courts that reduced those judges’ sentences by 684.5 years. That’s 684.5 years that humans shouldn’t have been in prison.

1/2 NEW: groundbreaking report w/RaceNYU: *Excessive Sentencers*. We use an innovative dataset -- appellate decisions -- to identify judges who imposed such lengthy prison sentences that the appellate court (2-5 judges) felt compelled to reduce them “in the interest of justice.”
