We are excited to share our new report, “Investing in Pretrial Justice in Illinois: A Vision for Supporting Communities After the End of Money Bond." Read it here: endmoneybond.org/2024/04/18/inv…
What lil civilian oversight Chicago has is being undermined by CPD & the FOP! The police board should be able to fire the 5 cops who killed Dexter along with Sup Snel but now the courts may be giving cops private arbitration & destroying what lil accountability they have!
Our partners, @SOULInChicago, are leading the work for this @endmoneybond initiative. We’re continuing to fight for reimagined community safety. #monday #safety #chicago #endmoneybond
A quarter of Illinois jails don’t have written policies for how to treat pregnant people who are incarcerated. WBEZ details a new report from our friends at @the_wji @ACLUofIL: wbez.org/stories/punish…
Join us, @GrassrootsChi, @ArtsPrison & @liberationlib for a conversation about art & storytelling in the movement against incarceration! Attendees will also get to explore the Pretrial Fairness art exhibit hosted by DragonFly Gallery! Register here: forms.gle/Lo9mqVSi5JcVLR…
WATCH: After the City Council meeting today, @ChicagosMayor Brandon Johnson made a statement in support of @RossanaFor33 & @AldermanLaSpata's ceasefire resolution, recognizing the parallels between Black and Palestinian liberation! #CeasefireNOW #BlackPalestinianSolidarity
Today’s vote on the FOP arbitration decision was postponed and we’re hearing some of the alders who supported us last time may be folding under FOP pressure. So we must IMMEDIATELY begin applying pressure on them to stand up to the FOP.
Last week, our friend & @CAARPRNow comrade, Shasta Jones, passed away in her home. She was only 43. We'll miss her passion, energy & humor, and we offer condolences to both her relatives & Alliance family. May Shasta Rest In Power! Read her story: caarpr.org/statements/hon…
"The Pretrial Fairness Act is already affecting thousands of people and will affect hundreds of thousands more to come,” she said. “It’s hard to put into words how amazing that is.” Briana Payton, @ChiAppleseed dailynorthwestern.com/2024/01/18/cit…
Black & brown forces in Chicago join to help pass @RossanaFor33 & @AldermanLaSpata's Ceasefire Resolution! CALL & EMAIL alders in the graphics NOW! Full list of alders: instagram.com/p/C14tjZ6LYL1/ @CAARPRNow @SOULInChicago @chitorture @CRSchicago @Jericho4PPs @BPNCchicago @GKMC18
CHI Day 2: CALL YOUR ELECTED OFFICIALS TODAY! Let them know they are complicit in the Israeli genocide against the Palestinian people & they must speak up for Palestine by demanding the end to U.S aid to Israel immediately! PHONE NUMBERS & SAMPLE SCRIPT PROVIDED! #GazaGenocide
[Thread] CHICAGO: Here is the list of actions for our week of action w/ @NAARPR & @NewSDS! Uspcn.org/weekofaction24 Our partners: @SOULInChicago @GKMC18 @frso_chicago @BLMChi @chitorture @CRSchicago @Jericho4PPs @Anakbayan_Chi @healthyhoodchi @fam_latinaunida @ILPS_Official
Keep the pressure on! This is the short list of the alder people we need to call every day in order to assure that they say NO to arbitration, and that CPD cannot bypass the community power that we all fought so hard for. Script on slide 3.
This included “no” votes from Chris Taliaferro and Stephanie Coleman, two previously undecided Alders we’ve been calling for the past two weeks. Listen to Frank’s remarks from the start of the committee meeting.
“The best way to stop the loss of life at the Cook County Jail is to increase access to medical services and to decrease the number of people in this jail.” Pastor @HowNowBrownDowd of @SOULInChicago chicago.suntimes.com/city-hall/2023…
Today, the Cook County Board of Commissioners approved the county’s FY2024 operating budget. While it is encouraging to see the total & proportional spending on incarceration decrease, we are deeply troubled by many of the Sheriff’s expenditures. endmoneybond.org/2023/11/16/com…
Woods Fund Chicago congratulates our numerous grantee partners who have organized so that Chicagoans will have the opportunity to vote on the Bring Chicago Home referendum. Bring Chicago Home has received the support of several WFC grantee partners.
We joined @SOULInChicago & other organizations in writing to Chicago City Council urging them to reject a measure allowing Chicago Police Department officers accused of serious misconduct to have their cases reviewed behind closed doors. Our statement ➡️ colorofchange.org/press_release/…
#Passed @BringChiHome Thank you Chicago Alders + @ChicagosMayor for working with the coalition to take this step to #endhomelessness
We, as the people of Cook County, should not be denied this important opportunity to comment. This budget has an incredible impact on so many people and families, and the public deserves the right to engage the board on it.
