  • Free Raunchino James
    Raunchino James has been serving a 21 year sentence for a crime he did not commit. He refused to plead guilty as offered in exchange for a lighter sentence because he knew that he was not guilty of the crime. During this trial there was basically no evidence, as there were no matching fingerprints, no weapons found, not even a matching description in the evidence presented by prosecutors. There was no physical evidence to substantiate a verdict of guilty handed down by the judge who tried the case. Later it was discovered that there was false testimony given, NO DNA, and conflicting testimony!!! Raunchino James, a college graduate, an upwardly mobile young Black man, along with two other young men, were sentenced to over 20 years in prison for the crime of home invasion. This was a lengthy sentence for a crime that he did not commit. Let's start by challenging the system, by changing things, by protesting the faulty, unfair criminal justice system! This is a son of a personal friend, so it touches my heart deeply to see a life destroyed needlessly and to know that this is going on every day in this country. Let's make a difference!

  • Legalize Cannabis in Illinois!
    Marijuana prohibition was only implemented based on public hysteria caused by lies and racism, as well as a desire by the lumber and petroleum industry as many paper and petroleum based products can be produced more cheaply and efficiently with industrial hemp. According to the U.S. Government's own statistics, not one American has ever died as a result of consuming cannabis period.

  • Bring Anthony Home
    Our prisons are way too crowded not leaving enough for for the violent offenders. We are spending money each day to house non-violent or drug offenders when we could be sending them to rehabs and diversion centers.

  • Felony Expungement
    This petition is about communities similar to Sandtown-Winchester in Baltimore where individuals return to after incarceration. Communities with accumulations of individuals who have records of incarceration but have their economic potential capped because of that record, thus starving the neighborhood of potential income tax revenue which is the main form of community financial support.

  • Reform the Entire Criminal Justice System
    As a physician, I have become aware of the terrible rate of incarceration and the ridiculous lengths of sentences - and the horrific human toll on prisoners and their families, as well as the monstrous waste of resources that could go to solving our nation's many problems, including the poverty, mental illness, and addiction illnesses that fuel the prison industrial complex. Please join me in calling for massive change in the way we think about and treat non-violent offenses.
