Today I filed motions to vacate the first batch of low-level cannabis convictions in Cook County. This is just the beginning. Providing this relief is not only vital to right the wrongs of the past but a statement of the @cookcountysao values and commitment to justice.

I am proud that our hard work and focus on restorative justice has not only contributed to a decrease in incarceration rates in Cook County, but we have also seen that violent crime is down 8 percent and has decreased each year since 2016.

I’m proud of my colleague @chesaboudin who is already enacting crucial reforms in San Francisco. For too long we’ve been detaining people pre-trial, while they are presumed innocent, simply because they are poor.

Thank you @GovPritzker for signing SB557 today. This new trauma-informed law provides sexual assault survivors with more options for safe and compassionate care at a time when some are uncomfortable going to a hospital – and helps us bring them justice.

On average, black women in the U.S. are paid 39% less than white men, resulting in a pay gap where black women earn only 61 cents for every dollar paid to a white man. For more information, visit leanin.org/data-about-the… #BlackWomensEqualPay

Cash bail allows for people charged with murder to pay their way out, while poor people charged with non-violent offenses sit in jail.

Justice would be George Floyd being alive and present in the lives of those who loved him. Accountability is what was served to Derek Chauvin. (1/3)
