My plan will transform our country’s broken criminal justice system by ending mass incarceration, holding law enforcement accountable, ensuring those in the system are given dignity, and getting profit out of the equation.

Throughout my career, I’ve fought to reform our criminal justice system. My work on re-entry and racial bias has been a model for others — but we must do more. Today, I'm proud to release my comprehensive plan for reform.https://medium.com/@KamalaHarris/kamalas-plan-to-transform-the-criminal-justice-system-and-re-envision-public-safety-in-america-f83a3d739bae …

It’s time to end mass incarceration. This includes legalizing marijuana, sentencing reforms, and abolishing private prisons. With the addition of job training and education, these actions will reduce crime and help build healthy communities.

We must build trust between law enforcement and the communities they are sworn to serve. As president, I’d set a national standard to use deadly force only as a last resort to ensure accountability.

My criminal justice plan will ensure incarcerated individuals are treated with dignity and aren’t criminalized for poverty. This includes ending money bail and fines that criminalize poor and low-income people, and ending the federal death penalty and solitary confinement.

I don’t know, Kamala. After the “well said” debacle, and you claiming you didn’t hear the man, I’m not sure you can be trusted now.

I’m happy to see a detailed plan from you on this important topic, but I’m not sure why this wasn’t the first thing your campaign did. It is right in your wheelhouse. Kinda sad to see the release timed with the Trump v. Legends dust up. Would still like to see you as AG though.

Right. Because her team could totally know when 45 would go on an unhinged rant and plan a release around it.
