It’s a great week for legislators to visit a #Florida prison. When you do, let us know—not to hold you accountable, but to say thank you! Oversight is your job, and your predecessors knew how vital it was. Please exercise it. We’re counting on you. @FLSenate @myflhouse…
We’ve tied the all time record high in #Tampa at 99°. (records go back to 1890) Can we reach 100° for the first time? We’ve got a great shot.
Last week @BaltimoreBanner hosted a discussion entitled 'Maryland’s Prison Crisis & the Path Ahead.' #SaferPrisonsSaferCommunities campaign partners @FAMMFoundation & @One_VoiceUnited were in attendance and spoke to the interconnected issues of understaffing + overincarceration.
caring for (not over-incarcerating) our neighbors can reduce crime. imagine that...
So I read a really dystopian piece of research... which I will tell you about here. But the good news is that this piece of research highlighted, for me, all the ways we could lower crime (fairly easily!)...if we chose to. Watch for more 👇👇👇
Two wins, two clean sheets, & a MOTM performance! A great way to close out the week against two strong opponents. As always, incredible support at home today & a special honour wearing the captain armband in Lisbon for #CelticFC 🍀
"Parole processes are a minefield of racial disparities, opaque processes, over-politicization, and little representation or assistance..." Fantastic work by @PrisonPolicy, @MacArthrJustice. prisonpolicy.org/blog/2025/07/1… cc: @FAMMFoundation
i had a dream (nightmare) that i overslept by like 18 hours and missed tomorrow's @WuTangClan show
walked past the sweetest looking wedding at love park today. i ❤️ this city so much.

grateful to spend the day with a group of humans who are better people than i could ever be. unfortunately, pennsylvania's sentencing laws don't recognize the humanity behind prison walls. @fammfoundation tries to change those laws and amplify the powerful stories of redemption…

I wish you were ready. But u are not. @clipse #tinydesk. Tomorrow at noon.
