Dear Yuh-Line Niou, Brian Kavanagh, Deborah Glick, and Brad Hoylman,
Enclosed please find a Resolution approved by Downtown Independent Democrats General Membership on May 26, 2021 in Support of the Justice Roadmap.
The New York State Justice Roadmap is a downloadable living document that outlines a path to justice reform legislation including ending the war on drugs & criminalization of mental illness, de-carcerating jails, promoting investment rather than wealth extraction in marginalized communities, prioritizing community safety above policing and much more.
We encourage you to support this roadmap as well.
Sincerely,
Richard Corman
President
