44 states + D.C. suspend, revoke, or refuse to renew driver’s licenses over unpaid traffic and court fines & fees. Today, 100+ organizations (including
@ACLU) launch the#FreeToDrive campaign to reform this criminalization of poverty https://bit.ly/32DOoY3?cc=d1a132cfe2a6128b22938fa1c81a43ec … -

@CivRightsCorps describes wins and challenges in TN: CRC won an injunction at district court, but TN legislature's new statute on debt-based revocation & suspension created an unwieldy bureaucratic structure for court-ordered payment plans.#FreeToDrive pic.twitter.com/MqiUWtej7d

Debt based driver’s license suspensions are a significant barrier to employment/successful reentry, criminalize poverty, and increase the likelihood of repeated contact w the justice system.
@ceoworks is proud to join#freetodrive to stop these practices. https://twitter.com/FinesandFeesJC/status/1171495927300837376 … – mjesto: Arnold & Porter

Powerful remarks from Desiree Barron on how driver's license suspension for ticket she couldn't afford to pay upended her life, including preventing her from going to nursing school.

@LegalAidJustice talks about being blindsided by how fines and fees revenues were important to funding critical state services in VA. Filling the gap is critical to reform — recouping costs of collection and incarceration is one solution#freetodrive -
Great to hear directly from someone unfortunately dealing with nonsensical fines & drivers license suspension

44 states, plus D.C., suspend licenses for unpaid court debt. Without a license, it can be difficult to go to the doctor, take the kids to school, or go to work. The
#FreetoDrive coalition has mapped out this endless cycle of punishment for poverty. https://bit.ly/2LxVZ54 -
We released a series of interactive maps showing which states suspend driver's licenses for unpaid fines and fees & how many suspensions were issued in each state. Please check it out & share your thoughts - I’ve spent months working on this! http://www.freetodrive.org/maps

In Maryland, AG
@BrianFrosh is supporting legislation to end driver's license suspension for unpaid fines and fees. People who can't afford to pay "get sucked into a vortex of punishment and poverty."#FreetoDrive https://www.washingtonpost.com/local/md-politics/attorney-general-frosh-pushes-for-end-to-drivers-losing-licenses-over-traffic-debt/2020/01/15/29ce6e34-371a-11ea-9541-9107303481a4_story.html … -
FACT: Over 11M driver’s licenses nationwide are currently suspended for unpaid debt. This is cruel, unfair and unjust. Today, we stand w/ over 100+ partners in calling for reform. Driver’s license suspensions burden the lives of poor people.
