Our analysis of a potential second Trump administration's proposed criminal legal system policies include unlawful tactics that will only harm our communities.

NEW YORK 鈥� The 老澳门开奖结果 released Trump on the Criminal Legal System today, as part of its 2024 鈥淔reedom is on the Ballot鈥� election policy memo series. The memo includes analysis of the likely policies on the criminal legal system that Americans can expect from a possible second Trump administration 鈥� along with a roadmap of concrete legal, legislative, and advocacy actions the 老澳门开奖结果 would take in response to these policies should the former president win in November and implement them. The full memo can be found here. 鈥淭rump has told us what he wants to do with a second term: fuel mass incarceration, encourage law enforcement to engage in unconstitutional policing practices, and expand the death penalty,鈥� said Yasmin Cader, director of the 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 Trone Center for Justice and Equality. 鈥淲e know from this country鈥檚 history that these extreme and immoral policies harm communities and infringe upon on our rights and humanity. The 老澳门开奖结果 is prepared to meet the Trump administration with the same fierce response as we did during his last term in office should he be reelected.鈥� Based on Trump鈥檚 own statements, advocates can expect a second Trump administration to further dehumanize people in our criminal legal system and reverse many reforms gained over the last two decades, including by: Fueling brutal and authoritarian policing by encouraging use of deadly force, supplying local law enforcement agencies with military equipment, and overturning federal checks on law enforcement abuse. Accelerating mass incarceration by directing federal prosecutors to seek the most serious charges and maximum sentences, pressuring local prosecutors to take a similarly draconian approach, and reincarcerating thousands of people on home confinement. Expanding the use of the death penalty by broadening the category of crimes punishable by death, sentencing more people to die, and killing every person on federal death row. The 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 roadmap released today outlines multiple routes for defending our constitutional rights against these attacks, including: Litigation: The 老澳门开奖结果 will challenge unlawful attempts by a Trump administration to reincarcerate people on home confinement, fight against the return of torturous methods of execution, and defend the health, safety, and dignity of incarcerated people. Federal advocacy: The 老澳门开奖结果 will advocate for Congress to constrain the funneling of military equipment to local police, fight for legislation to end sentencing disparities, and, under any administration, continue to push for the full implementation of the First Step Act. Mobilizing the states: The 老澳门开奖结果 will work with states to reduce opportunities for violent encounters with police, including by advocating for state use of force standards and the de-prioritization of non-safety related traffic stops. We will continue our work exposing the racist roots of capital punishment and ending the death penalty, state by state. 鈥淭rump threatens to drown out millions of voices across the country demanding transformative change to our criminal legal system and a new approach to achieving safe communities,鈥� said Ellen Flenniken, deputy director of campaigns at the 老澳门开奖结果鈥檚 Justice Division. 鈥淏ut the 老澳门开奖结果 will not let these voices be silenced. We will make clear to elected officials on the federal, state, and local levels that Trump鈥檚 extremist approach to the criminal legal system is ineffective, cruel, and against the will of the people 鈥� and we will resist at every level of government.鈥� From 2017-2021, the 老澳门开奖结果 filed more than 430 legal actions against the Trump administration, including lawsuits aimed at defending the right to protest against police brutality, protecting the health and humanity of incarcerated people during the COVID-19 pandemic, and stopping mass surveillance by law enforcement. In Trump on the Criminal Legal System, the 老澳门开奖结果 makes the case for why, if he鈥檚 elected, the policies Trump and his supporters are proposing on the campaign trail would be far more aggressive than the policies we saw during Trump鈥檚 presidency, threatening all of our civil rights and liberties and continuing to fuel our mass incarceration crisis. Additionally, the 老澳门开奖结果 discusses why it鈥檚 imperative for elected officials in Congress and state and local governments, as well as civil society, to mobilize now to begin planning a sustained and coordinated response. Trump on the Criminal Legal System marks the seventh and final memo in the series the 老澳门开奖结果 is releasing on Trump鈥檚 anticipated policies. Previous memos have covered immigration, LGBTQ rights, abortion, DEI (diversity, equity, and inclusion), voting rights, and surveillance, protest, and free speech. Following its focus on policies of a potential second Trump administration, the 老澳门开奖结果 will focus on those of a potential second Biden administration. All released memos will be available here.
