    Read @JennTurner's blockbuster report on the 3,000 Americans doing life without parole (LWOP) for *nonviolent* offenses. The report's spotlight on Alice Johnson got things rolling toward today's commutation. And there are many more who deserve the same! https://www.aclu.org/report/living-death-life-without-parole-nonviolent-offenses …https://twitter.com/ChaseMadar/status/1004407658777104384 …

        Obama certainly had some crazypants enemies in the GOP. But that said, overall the Obama administration's clemency drive was slow, timid, tepid and mediocre. (Trump's will surely be worse.) We need industrial-scale clemency!

        Yes, although it grew out of a very process-obsessed lawerliness, in the same way today's actions by Trump grow out of the opposite.

        Sadly this POTUS would like to sentence nonviolent drug offenders to death. I'm not optimistic with this POS and his sidekick Sessions.

        Replying to @DemFelicia @JennTurner

        His clemency record will most likely be (even) worse than Obama's, yes. But it would be nice if he issued a ton of commutations and pardons just to mess with Sessions.

        My clients, all in poverty, include three young men sentenced to die in prison for crimes committed as kids. I had one client who got 26 years of flat time - no early release - for a crime in which no one was hurt. REFORM IS NEEDED NOW.

        I will continue to beat this drum..."non-violent" is a term that causes increased suffering for the folks left behind by reform categorized as "violent" by code...here is what @WesternBruce concluded about how it is used in Boston..totally agree with the rest!!!pic.twitter.com/EF2K6wwYX3

        Considering the left’s stance on firearms one would think you would want the “habitual firearms” offenders punished harshly.

        I knew before I bother to find her picture Alice Marie Johnson was Black. Why? Because no White woman would have gotten LIFE for a first time, nonviolent drug offense. School me if the women imprisoned for life under this offense match proportion of w White/Black in the USA

        last but not least, if you have read Locked In by @JohnFPfaff you know Mass Incarceration cannot be solved without a more nuanced discussion about the problem of violence. I still want relief for all the folks in that report, I am just talking about language choices & strategy
