We began meeting with Pennsylvania State House and Senate members in January 2023, and thus far, we have completed nearly 300 meetings. We've met with 152 State House members and 42 State Senate members, over two-thirds of our legislators.

We focus on ending death by incarceration (DBI), also known as mandatory life without parole sentences, in Pennsylvania. While our lobbying focuses specifically on DBI, we support other groups and allied coalitions focused on related issues, such as changing the commutation process, improving re-entry resources, and banning solitary confinement.
