      I was with you until the punchline. Its uncomfortable, but Mike Tracey is right on this one. The First Step Act is objectively way more effective than the Fair Sentencing Act of 2010, Obama's most meaningful #CJreform besides clemency

      Are we talking about Biden or Trump or Obama?

      Yes, apparently. Also the First Step act does a lot of terrible things.

      If we’re talking about the risk assessment provision added to slightly earlier release to halfway houses for only nonviolent crimes? *shrug* I don’t agree with JLUSA on that, but it was a clever comms strategy.

      I was comparing the legislative record of Obama versus Trump. Trump has signed legislation more sweepingly reformative than anything Obama signed. That’s what the ACLU and other reform groups have maintained.

      I actually find this exchange deeply disappointing. Yes, it’s fun for leftists to hate on Mike Tracey on the Internet, I know. But ACLU’s feigned initial opposition to the First Step Act was strategically unprincipled, and Biden has an objectively bad record on these issues.

      I’m long past expecting constructive engagement from (most) social-signaling liberal/left resistance warriors on this website.

          To keep to my main point though: I’ve had prosecutors who are by far considered amongst the most progressive tell me personally, “panic over ‘e-carceration’ from the Left is like pouring gasoline on the current progress trend on ending mass incarceration and lighting a match”

          And we’re already losing *massive ground* on #CJreform this year. @GeorgeGascon is getting replaced by a conservative Kamala lackey. @DonellAyalaEsq is quitting in Orlando. Those two districts alone are the size of a lot of states, pop wise.
