    There are a surprising number of people sitting in jail each day, many of whom are unconvicted of a crime, because they cannot afford to post bail. As part of the @ACLU's Campaign for Smart Justice, take this pop quiz to learn more about the broken cash bail system.pic.twitter.com/r1RwbjJ9q1

        Thank you. No civilized evolved Society should ever have for-profit prisons and this is just one more way a beating the man when he's down~ And of course it's not just men it's women struggling to find child care and driving to a minimum wage job with an expired car tag 1/2

        Then they lose custody of their child or children because they can't post bail and they are in jail for 6 months to a year because they couldn't afford to pay for a new tag. The cycle of poverty in America is cruel and unusual punishment. 2/2

        My foster daughter spent a year in jail, away from her two year old daughter. She was then found innocent(which we knew). The courts released her without anyone having to take responsibility for her losing a year of her life! How is that right.

        Why would government allow someone waste 6month, 1 year in jail before finding out the truth? Is it that so difficult to carry out proper investigation on whether the accused person is convicted or not?

        Will you please come back to Scranton to help us call attention to women inmates who are caught up in sex slave brutality by prison guards that requires national attention. Many guards are arrested. Women are intimidated. Most women can't make bail. Few people care. Care, dude.

        This is absolutely true. I believe it is unconstitutional as well. Based on the fact that most of the citizens in this situation are poor. Personally it makes me sick that this is happening in America.

        This is such a brilliant way to discuss such an overlooked wrong in our society. Being poor should not be a crime.

        John, have you heard about the #ECOT scandal that is affecting our home city of Springfield? I know that @Finfrock4StRep has a plan to put that money back into the public school system.

        Replying to @Seth_Flora @johnlegend and

        ECOT was a disaster and instead of recognizing the problem with defunding public education, GOP is doubling down by pushing a bill that will pay for private schools for families up to 400% of poverty. My family could make $200,000 a year and still have Ohio pay for private school
