Yesterday we had a GREAT time with Bend the Arc: Long Island (Bend the Arc: Jewish Action) canvassing for #ParoleJusticeNY at Spinney Hills in Manhasset. Nearly everyone we spoke to signed postcards to their Assembly Member supporting passage of the Elder Parole and Fair & Timely Parole bills.
Solitary confinement is torture. A new letter from Senator Dick Durbin Elizabeth Warren Ed Markey urges ICE to end solitary confinement. President Biden & Congress must immediately enact the End Solitary Confinement Act, S3409/HR4972, to end solitary in ICE and BOP custody.
