Summarization
The Sentencing Project is advocating for urgent reforms to meaningfully reduce the prison population in the US and to "wholesale reimagining of public safety" by capping sentences for most serious offenses at 20 years. This is in response to the past 50 years of mass incarceration. The R Street Institute is joining the coalition to help change outdated policy. As an alternative to prison, the initiative suggests investing in real remedies to safety. Scripture is being used to promote the idea that children should be in care, not cages.
