We can’t keep telling people who work, pay taxes, & are just trying to raise their families that they can’t vote because they’re on parole. People who have served their time and are trying to rebuild their lives should have the opportunity to have their voices heard in elections
What's more, the voting laws for people with past convictions are different in every state, and SUPER complicated in some places. That makes it even harder for people to know if they're even eligible to vote! We created our #RestoreYourVote tool to help.http://restoreyourvote.org

Because our system is perfect, and nobody gets locked up except who deserves it. What's that? 8.2 million weed arrests made between '01 & '10? What's that again? Despite roughly equal usage rates, Blacks are nearly 4 times more likely to be arrested than whites for weed usage?
