BREAKING! 12 yrs ago today, Connecticut abolished the death penalty. After news that local corp Absolute Standards is the nation's secretive supplier of execution drugs, state legislators are looking to ban local corps from profiting off it. This is huge. ctinsider.com/opinion/articl…
So excited for this.
Important thread that gives new meaning to the phrase "if you don't do it, someone else will." It's vile.

Incarceration is a business
A short, hopeful story. Starts 2 years ago, with a single mother named Terranisha in a Houston courtroom. Free pretrial because of bail reform. Ends w/ a dinner at John Legend’s house w/ other people who experienced freedom. But really it’s only the beginning. Watch & read on:
The part that's often missed about campaigns to make prison communication free is that they fit into a broader strategy to destablize the prison industry and undermine its power over carceral policy. This piece in @theappeal provides important context. theappeal.org/securus-bankru…

I really respect this type of critique. Our team reflects deeply on it. It's why we're excited to be releasing a report later this year about the impact that free prison calls have had. It's not small in any way. Thank you for pushing us, stay tuned. counterpunch.org/2024/04/22/pri…
People imprisoned in many states are charged significantly more for essential items than those outside even though they typically earn pennies an hour — or no wages at all. Investigation finds prices inside 5 times higher and markups as high as 600%. theappeal.org/locked-in-pric…
It’s true, the Connecting Families Act in NY is just the beginning. And still… state leadership is struggling to get it done. timesunion.com/opinion/articl…
NJ is not a serious state. I just passed a digital road sign that read “weed like to remind u not to drive under the influence.” 😂 Happy 4/20 people, be safe.
Powerful words about our RI bill to make prison calls free in @TheValleyBreeze. "This bill is an opportunity for mothers and sons to have a nurturing relationship without worrying about whether we have enough money to hear—and say—'I love you.'" - Melonie valleybreeze.com/opinion/letter…
President of @NAACPNYS, Dr Hazel Dukes, has weighed in on free prison calls. “I would be remiss not to urge your support for a policy that would bring tremendous financial relief and healing to Black families.” @GovKathyHochul @AndreaSCousins @CarlHeastie where do you stand?
This doesn't seem complicated!! Let's do this @GovKathyHochul

These women matter. Their children matter. It’s time to do different.
“It’s hard for me to contact my 3 children. I want to keep the bond that I have with them. I want them to never feel alone. Free prison calls would do that. I'm just pleading and begging for someone to make this possible.” - Tamara @GovKathyHochul will you be that someone?
You were in great company alongside MA Gov. Maura Healey. You know what else she did to help parents? She proudly supported advocates in making prison communication free. Can we count on you @GovKathyHochul to do the same in the budget expected tomorrow?

@BiancaTylek @justice4all01 I prefer the term "racket," but to each her own.
@BiancaTylek Awful!! Makes me so mad to read this kind of stuff!!
Join us and our partners at @DeathPenaltyAct today in demanding that Absolute Standards stop supplying death penalty drugs to federal and state governments. Take action at worthrises.org/lethalinjectio….
Given this country’s long history of botched executions, it should alarm every person of conscience that governments are securing execution drugs from an unregulated chemical corporation that does not make drugs for human consumption. This negligence undoubtedly causes harm.
Importantly, Absolute Standards is a chemical corporation specializing in machine solutions. As a result it is not regulated by the FDA, which is what allowed it to fly under the radar for so long though Congress started to ask questions back in 2020. reuters.com/article/idUSKC…
Thanks to a recent investigation by @LastWeekTonight, those questions have been definitively answered. Turns out Connecticut-based Absolute Standards began manufacturing and supplying the execution drug pentobarbital to governments nationwide in 2018. youtube.com/watch?v=SOn3wb…
Yet, at the end of Trump’s presidency, his administration surprisingly managed to execute 13 people after a 17-year hiatus on federal executions. There were a lot of questions about how they got their hands on the drugs necessary for this killing spree. propublica.org/article/inside…
Those most committed to the death penalty have sought alternative ways to carry out executions, including nitrogen suffocation. So now even gas suppliers and medical equipment manufacturers are banning the use of their products in executions. theguardian.com/us-news/2024/m…
Every major pharmaceutical corporation has taken action to prohibit the use of its drugs for execution, citing both moral and business reasons. Impacting the most common execution method, their actions have forced states to delay or halt executions. nytimes.com/2016/05/14/us/…
Over the past two decades, because of the relentless work of advocates, it has become increasingly difficult for federal and state governments to secure the means to execute people on death row. With inaccessible drugs and medical equipment, options for executions are limited.
TAKE ACTION! 🚨 Corporations are secretly profiting off the death penalty. Thanks to recent investigative reporting we now know that Absolute Standards is the nation's supplier of lethal injection drugs. THREAD Tell them to STOP profiting off executions! worthrises.org/lethalinjectio…
