FAMM launched a Second Chances Resource Library with resources for advocates fighting for release opportunities for people with long sentences or other circumstances warranting release from prison. This is part of our effort to create a nationwide movement for #secondchances.

How about hiring enough pilots americanair so that a quarter of my flights aren’t cancelled or delayed due to pilot problems? I care about getting to my destination more than I care about the food.

There is little evidence that imposing a long prison sentence will deter people from doing the things we don't want them to. Considering we impose longer sentences than most countries in the world, if long sentences deterred people, we should have one of the safest countries.

The number of veterans in our jails and prisons is depressing. There has to be a better way to deal with these issues then reactionary charges and prison sentences.

"The government should not get in the way of people working because of irrelevant criminal convictions," said Institute for Justice's Andrew Ward. "It happens all the time. It was irrational here and it's irrational when it happens anywhere." npr.org/2023/09/18/120…

Grateful for One Voice United and their work to raise awareness about this. Healthy officers lead to healthy prisons. corrections1.com/prison-reform/…

Spoke about the goals of federal sentencing today at the Federal Judicial Center before a bunch of officers from U.S. Probation. Love the opportunity to speak to policy- and decision-makers. #SecondChances #sentencing

Stephanie Nodd was released from prison after 21 years, 9 years early because of sentencing reform. Here she talks to FAMM's Alexia Pitter about what that second chance has meant to her. #FreeToSucceed💜 #FAMMstories
