I just returned from Rikers Island where a group of elected officials exercised our legal right to inspect correctional facilities. What I witnessed was a humanitarian crisis. A horror house of abuse and neglect. I'll share more soon but for now my message is simple: decarcerate.

This isn’t his making. The court system is backed up because of covid and people not being able to afford bail. It’s always been a problem.

I’m proud of our new progressive DA in San Francisco. He eliminated the patently-unfair-to-the-poor cash bail system right away. I’ll vote for him again. #ChesaBoudin
