Send a Letter to Your Local Newspaper to Pass the EQUAL Act
The 18:1 sentencing disparity between crack and powder cocaine offenses is a blatant racial injustice in our legal system, disproportionately impacting communities of color.
The Eliminating a Quantifiably Unjust Application of the Law (EQUAL Act) will dismantle this disparity, ensuring a 1:1 ratio and advancing racial justice.
Our Senators must act now and support the EQUAL Act. You can make a difference by sending a letter to the editor of your local newspaper.
