Arizona has some of the harshest sentences in the country, sending more people to prison and for longer. What’s more, Arizona taxpayers are stuck footing the bill for these long sentences that don’t make us any safer than our neighbors.
Unfortunately, those reforms haven’t made it to Arizona.
SB 1334 is Arizona’s last chance to create the kind of criminal justice system Arizonans deserve. This reform is supported by conservatives and will make our neighborhoods safer and slow Arizona’s revolving prison door.
But none of that will happen unless it makes it through the State Senate.
Write and call your Senator TODAY and urge them to follow President Trump’s lead by passing SB 1334.
Call Script:
My name is [insert full name], and I am calling to urge Sen. [Insert Sen’s Last Name] to support the important criminal justice reform bill SB 1334.
Arizona has some of the longest and harshest sentencing in the country. It costs taxpayers too much and doesn’t make us any safer. We deserve better.
SB 1334 will ensure that folks receive a fair sentence and are less likely to return to a life of crime after they have done their time.
As a constituent, I am asking you to follow President Trump’s leadership on criminal justice reform and support this important bill.
Thank you for your time.
