"Cut a Sack Lunch, Save Peanuts; Cut the Number of People in Prison, Save Communities"
along with our proposal to save the state a Billion dollars in prison spending through reforms in parole, prison education, eliminating barriers to successful re-entry, sentencing reform and additional reforms regarding hiring, prison construction, and administrative issues.
