Stop leading the world in rates of incarceration.

Created on April 22, 2016

People living in cages for non violent drug offenses is not a problem to be solved slowly over time. We ask that President Obama use the power of the pardon to release all non violent drug offender's as quickly as possible and while he retains the power to do so. Caging human beings is an awful thing to do and should be though of that way. We resort to this far too readily as a society and this would be a good first step to address a terribly broken criminal justice system. To some this may sound too radical but I consider it a modest start. Culturally, we think of caging human's for long periods of their lives as putting them in 'club fed' if we think about it at all. Think about it a bit longer and please add your signature.
