Did you know that in America, one form of cocaine can land you behind bars for years, while the other form could get you a slap on the wrist?

Crack cocaine and powder cocaine are two forms of the same drug, yet penalties for the possession of crack are 18 times longer than those for people caught with the drug in its powder form.

The disparity is unjust, nonsensical, and racist, and it must end.

Dear Senators:

I am urging you to end the sentencing gap by supporting the "Eliminating a Quantifiably Unjust Application of the Law" (EQUAL) Act. The EQUAL Act would create 1:1 penalties for crack and powder cocaine, bringing thousands home from prison and shortening future sentences.

The injustice of the sentencing gap is clear, but it's stuck around for decades and has ruined hundreds of thousands of lives.

Help end this unfair sentencing discrepancy and pass the EQUAL Act today!
