Criminal Justice Reform

cop cameras
disclose whenever someone is killed/harmed because of an interaction with police and how/why with documentation
better police-neighborhood relations
independent investigations
train police to limit the use of force and how to de-escalate and have good public relations
get rid of mandatory minimum sentencing
no prison for nonviolent or low-level offenders
health treatment for drugs and other addiction, not prison
end the death penalty
legalize marijuana (jail sentences disproportionately affect African-Americans)
end for-profit prisons, make it more rehabilitation-focused
universal voter registration
repair the Voting Rights Act
help with the expenses of childcare, college, etc.

A lot of these go for everyone, and would help everyone, too.

Not true for all felons, but there's also this thing called a jail.

What about the rest?
