January 13th, 2021 marks the start of the Virginia General Assembly General Session. In its annual tradition, Justice Forward will host its “Prep Rally”— to better inform and mobilize advocates to effectively lobby for meaningful criminal justice reform. Both legislators and policy experts will take to Facebook Live, Thursday, January 7th at 6:30pm, to go into detail about the issues and our relative priority justice reform legislation being introduced this year.

Our legislators in the House and Senate have told us they want to hear from their constituents, want data to support change, and want to work together to make Virginia safe and just for all. Our virtual “Prep Rally” will get you informed about the issues on the table this session, and will assist advocates in feeling confident about lobbying for justice. We know the General Assembly is capable of bold action when the people show them that they care. Join us at the event link below, and share, together we can.

*Official Lobby Days are separate events scheduled January 8th, 11th, and 12th. An official sign up to discuss Criminal Justice Reform with legislators directly can be found HERE
