An open letter to State Governors

Invest in communities, not prisons

2 so far! Help us get to 5 signers!

I urge you to take a stand against the construction of more prisons in our state. Prisons perpetuate cycles of trauma, punishment, and despair. Instead, let’s invest in solutions that address the root causes of harm: 1. Fund food banks to end hunger. 2. Expand accessible mental health care. 3. Support community services that uplift struggling families. 4. Strengthen education to build brighter, safer futures. Real safety comes from meeting people’s needs, not creating spaces of confinement. Please lead the way in shifting resources to build strong, healthy communities.
