Last year, the U.S. spent more than $200 billion on policing – a 40% increase in less than 10 years. Meanwhile, funding for libraries only increased 22%, which doesn't even keep up with inflation. Reveals a lot about the country's priorities.

Thousands of people detained by ICE are actually held in local, publicly operated jails These facilities–run by elected sheriffs–are making money off of the incarceration of people who are mostly accused of no more serious offense than crossing the border without permission

🚨NEW REPORT: Parole is one of the most powerful release mechanisms that could significantly reduce the number of people behind bars. But across the U.S., parole systems are dysfunctional, to say the least. We examine how parole boards work, and how parole decisions are made 🧵
