The death penalty is an abomination

William Barr's priority is bringing back capital punishment.

Tell Congress: "Congress can ban the federal government from using capital punishment. And with one more person scheduled to be put to death, they must act quickly." ADD YOUR NAME Friend, For the first time in 17 years, our federal government is resuming executions. Nearly 150,000 Americans are dead from a pandemic that Trump's White House refuses to fight, unmarked fascist goon squads are roaming the streets of our cities, and William Barr's priority is bringing back capital punishment. Capital punishment is unjust. The process is rife with implicit bias, poor lawyering, and junk science. Convictions are more likely if the accused is Black, poor, and/or if the victim is white. ADD YOUR NAME: End the federal death penalty! Congress can ban the federal government from using capital punishment. And with one more person scheduled to be put to death, they must act quickly. Sign the petition: Demand an end to the federal death penalty. Thanks, Mike Phelan Progress America DONATE NOW Sent via ActionNetwork.org.
