In a #ProBono partnership with @BuriedAliveProj, we helped secure the release of Tony Lewis, who has served 34 years of a life sentence for a non-violent drug offense. Lewis will be released today. #FirstStepAct #BuriedAliveProject https://t.co/KhCNFJaPbE

Sad the Florida Department of Corrections is starting to ban my book. I spoke nothing but TRUTH in the book and I've received hundreds of letters from people in prisons telling me that my book gave them so much hope. Shame on Florida DOC for trying to strip that hope away.

A step forward today. Hoping @POTUS actions today encourage state governors to follow suit. I hope it also means President Biden will be granting categorical clemency soon to every single person in federal prison serving time for marijuana. That will have a substantial impact. 🙏🏽

@MsBKB Great questions - I am hoping that the power in this is President Biden’s call on Governors to do the same. If the Govs follow suit we can see some big results.

It sounds good. I do have questions. Like how many people will this impact? Demographics? How many have other convictions that will still handcuff them? I don't know anyone who had federal "simple possession" charges so I'm not sure.

I want to know @MsBKB reaction to the simple marijuana position immediately! I mean…please. I know she’s busy and important.

I went to law school because my dad was sentenced to life in prison for non-violent drug crimes. I did what I could to get him out. He did 20 years and got out right in time for my graduation.

We are happy to see this news and elated for the people on the list and their families! Hoping this is just the beginning and that thousands of people buried alive under outdated federal drugs laws are granted relief soon. There is nothing more urgent than freedom.
