Statement on
#SB10 ballot measure: "The#moneybail industry is desperately trying to hang on & buy more time. But even they see the writing on the wall. Money bail is wrong. It’s unjust. It doesn’t promote public safety & it ruins lives." Full statement: https://bit.ly/2QVu5za pic.twitter.com/o2rVNUFeIA

#Moneybail is inherently unjust. Freedom should NOT be tied to wealth. The same system that let#HarveyWeinstein walk free after posting $1 million bail also keeps homeless & other low-income NYers caged behind bars, separated from family & subjected to inhumane jail conditions.pic.twitter.com/Cv1bffjVfWOvo je potencijalno osjetljiv multimedijski sadržaj.

Abolishing
#moneybail and replacing it with a risk-based system will enhance justice and safety. For too long, our system has allowed the wealthy to purchase their freedom regardless of their risk, while the poor who pose no danger languish in jail. No more.#OurCAValues#SB10pic.twitter.com/XXzZNXgynL
