Just finished a visit to another Federal Prison. I visited for many reasons including to learn more about issues facing incarcerated women.

Women face unique challenges in prison. Thanks to insights from the warden, staff & women I listened to, I'll step up my fight for reform.
-
America is paying too high a price for a broken criminal justice system that harms too much & helps too little. We must all demand better.
-
Again, I am grateful for those - especially at today's prison - who pour their heart into their work and affirm human dignity.
-
From the warden to the incarcerated women who advocated for issues of no direct benefit to them, today I saw the power of tireless love.
