Wiretap amendment goes down 22-14. Thank you for calling your senators, everyone. We won this battle, but the fight is not over. The prosecutors will not give up. Nor can we.

TY to my colleagues who voted unanimously to support my amendment for a policy review panel to make the justice system more responsive to women’s needs.

Democrats in the House will want a gold star for their comparatively weak
#CJReformMA bill after getting sponsors to withdraw amendment after amendment that would have actually made a strong bill. -
I thank my colleagues for passing Amendment 160 on the expungement of juvenile and emerging adult records. Citizens will soon be able to apply to expunge their records in a timeframe that allows them to have a second chance and rebuild their lives

Criminal Justice Reform and CSG bills are signed into law! Through policies like diversion, expungement, and re-entry, we’re going to look at people as individuals, rather than the result of broad-based policies.

#CJreformMA press conference — there’s major progress for Beacon Hill to be proud of. Repeal of some mandatories, important juv. justice reforms, improved prison conditions, fewer burdensome fines & fees, expungement and other CORI relief. A path forward, and we’ll keep fighting! pic.twitter.com/uxIEnsDhsj

Instead of giving prosecutors *more* power to coerce drug users, the
#CJReformMA bill should decriminalize and take power away from prosecutors to wage the war on drugs. We must stop these dangerous amendments.Show this thread -
Important part of
#CJReformMA: Corporations guilty of manslaughter will face fines up to $250,000 and debarment from state contracts for 10 years. That’s up from the current fine of just $1,000.Show this thread -
We would not be ready to take this major step forward on criminal justice reform without the advocacy of Communities for Restorative Justice. Together we are demonstrating that Massachusetts can once again lead the country in making the reforms we need.

Amendment #17 to ensure families of murder victims are not denied financial assistance for their loved one's funeral is adopted!

TY to the many, many advocates and residents who have fought over the years for the important criminal justice reforms that were signed into law today. Without your continued work and pressure, these changes to our criminal justice system never could have become law.

Tonight I thank my colleagues for passing Amendment 152 to codify the Juvenile Court best practices on the use of restraints. Our statutes will soon reflect the humane and age appropriate practices of the Juvenile Court

Really, really disappointing that
@maura_healey lined up with the governor and the DAs to try to massively expand the wiretap statute.#CJReformMAShow this thread -
Thank you to the
@NewtonDems_MA for having me to speak tonight about the important changes we need to make to build a modern & progressive Middlesex DA’s office. We can, and must do better.#DAdifference#CJReformMA pic.twitter.com/kWGlzd9dn1

Great coverage from the
@nytimes about the impact of harsh parole policies on people trying to get clean. This story breaks my heart, and we must work for policy changes to set folks like Julie on the road to recovery, not the road to jail.#CJReformMA https://www.nytimes.com/2018/06/04/health/drug-addict-relapse-opioids.html …https://twitter.com/Donna4DA/status/1001890040199475200 …
