The movement for criminal justice reform has momentum on the national stage as bills that would reduce prison sentences and reduce the number of people going to prison make their way through the House and the Senate. The Office of Public Witness held a webinar to discuss what the proposed reforms would do, how they would impact the struggle for racial justice and equity in the US, and how the faith community has taken leadership to move these policies forward.
