We need as many people possible to sign! Justice for Vic is much needed!

Family visits, or conjugal visits, have been a part of this state's prison system for years until recently. These visits have been proven to help the inmates keep family ties strong while being a part of the system. Being able to visit with their wives and children without having to worry about others watching their every move, or even just lying in the same bed as their significant other can mean the world to anyone that is involved. Please help bring these visits back into the system!

After uniformed police in Rhialto, CA wore body cameras, instances of complaints against the department dropped dramatically along with accounts of use of force. With all the recent and tragic uses of force against civilians by police, it would serve us as a nation to equip our uniformed law enforcement officials with the means to record interactions with the public. This both dissuades civilians from provoking police, and protects civilians from undue use of force. Please sign this petition to promote integrity in law enforcement and help prevent tragedies in the future.

When officers are required to wear video cameras this will protect the officers as well as the citizens. With the recent shooting death of an unarmed teenager in ferguson Missouri, Michael Brown this could help justify why the police officer had to shoot to kill.

To decrease the overcrowding and population of the 3-G offenders in Texas prisons.

Everyday you pick up the newspaper and you see the cop's are justifying killing people and dog's without any consequences.....this is Bullshit

Berks County residents, alarmed by the in-prison death a widowed mother of seven, discovered that the Court system's policy is to jail the parents of truant children if they cannot pay the children's truancy fines. Concerned citizens who had been unaware of the policy until the woman's death was reported, and who found that corrective legislation was moribund in Harrisburg, concluded that only the force of organized public opinion could foster a change in policy. For that reason, they decided to draft and promote this Petition.

Spencer Bowens was given a Life sentence and after 16 years, U.S. Supreme Court decisions overturning the validity of his conviction , Congress changes and the U.S. Sentencing Commission changes, Spencer Bowens is still in federal Prison. We must take action to change the unjust and harsh sentences!

Roy can`t rest in peace.

So many of our youth have made bad decisions as minors that has lead to several years of incarceration. Most are 1st time offenders that have been given the maximum time allowed for the crimes. Like Omar Tillis who was only 19 years old at the time of his conviction. While spending years in jail becoming just another number. Having spent his youth in an environment with adults. He has proven to be a model inmate. When released into society he will be a model citizen with the love and support of his family. Many times these young men are over looked. This happen with my brother. He is now deceased. I want to make a difference so that this young man can come home to his family where he has the love and support to continue being a model citizen in our community.

The life sentences we are putting on non violent felons by labeling them for life, is killing our labor force. Many of these people are good people, who may have just made a poor decision. If we stop the disenfranchisement, we may stop a lot of the crime along with it. Give people a chance to show they can do better, and we're sure most of them will.

Far too often officers are involved in shootings of unarmed citizens, and the public is told that the officer is on "admin leave" or "desk duty" but the identity of the officer is almost never made public. Instead, the media is allowed to vilify the deceased. If the identity of the officer involved in the incident is made public, it'll give the public a better shot at holding the officer and the police department, accountable...we ask for transparency with officer involved shootings!
