Overcrowding in prisons has detrimental consequences for those in prison, staff, communities and families supporting someone in prison. We know that meaningful contact between those in prison and those supporting them is beneficial to mental health and wellbeing.

However, we are hearing from families we work with that visit times are being restricted, in some cases people are being kept in cells over the weekend for 32 hours, and there is limited availability for rehabilitative activities.

CalKIDS doesn’t just support 4-year degrees. It can help students pursue community college, career training, and apprenticeship programs. If we want the next generation of breakthroughs to happen here in California, we have to invest in the next generation.

Vance: We have a program within Medicaid to ensure these needy kids get the resources they need. It is one of the things by the way I love about the US. We want everyone to work hard, play by the rules, but if we have a needy kid in our community, we are not going to let that person fall down on their own. All Americans are going to lift that kid up together. That is the amazing thing about our country

Cumberland councillors need to repeal their decision to ban same-sex parenting books now. We should have faith in our community to choose what they read. It’s clear the LGBTQ+ community is being used as a political football here - leaders in our community should know better.

#WATCH | Udaipur, Rajasthan: Jashoda Sahu, wife of murdered Udaipur tailor Kanhaiya Lal, has written a letter to PM Narendra Modi seeking help in the release of the film 'Udaipur Files', which has been stayed by the Delhi High Court. Son of Kanhaiya Lal, Tarun Sahu, says, "We have written a letter to PM Narendra Modi in which we have requested that the film made on our father is based on a true incident. No person of any religion or community has been hurt in it and that film is based on a true incident. We want the film to be released as soon as possible. And the second thing we have told Modi ji is that we want to meet him so that we can tell him what has happened to us in the last three years. It has been more than three years now and the accused have not been punished yet...We want justice."

Governing is about choices. And we have a big choice ahead of us. We can choose to invest in our families. Our workers. Our future. Or we can choose to give another few trillion to those who need it least.
