We have 48 hours to go and we are down 30% in donations from just 30 days ago. This is serious. We are doing everything we can.
We need everyone who can make a donation to step up now.
It is critical now.

Sanders writes: "We need to reform a broken system that punishes Americans for crimes even if they're never convicted."

Overall, the U.S. spends nearly $14 billion each year locking people up who haven’t been convicted and might never be. It’s clear the system is a poor use of resources. In 2015, the city of New Orleans collected $4.5 million in bail, fines and fees, but spent $6.4 million detaining people who couldn’t afford to pay their bail, fine or fee.
