Protect In-Person Advocacy Day

Please join our rally in Albany to urge lawmakers to protect visits at New York’s prisons and jails from being replaced with video calls. This is an alarming trend happening in jails across the country who are enticed by predatory video conferencing companies to reduce visiting hours to make money off of families who are forced to pay for video calls.

Passing the Protect In-Person Visits bill (A4603/S5037) would require NY’s prisons and jails to offer evening and/or weekend visiting hours, and protect in-person visiting hours from being replaced with video calls. 

If you would like to join meetings with lawmakers or need transportation from Brooklyn or Suffolk County, please RSVP by Friday.

Please contact me if you have any questions or would like to get more involved. 

Apologies for any cross-postings.

Thanks,

Allison
