Let’s Get Free: The Women and Trans Prisoner Defense Committee
We are a group working to end perpetual punishment, build a pathway out of the prisons back to our communities through commutation reform, support successful possibilities for people formerly and currently incarcerated, and shift to a culture of transformative justice.
Life sentences are death sentences in Pennsylvania. PA has one of the largest populations of people sentenced to die in prison in the US — 5,467.
