Olivia Gleason & Tannah Oppliger of CURB (Californians United for a Responsible Budget)

Californians United for a Responsible (CURB) is a coalition of over 80 grassroots organizations working together to: reduce the number of incarcerated people in California, reduce the number of jails and prisons in the state, shift wasteful spending away from incarceration and towards healthy community investments. Tannah and Olivia will be sharing more about California's prison system, the campaign, and urgent ways to take action ahead to protect our progress and defeat harmful propositions like Prop 36 on this November's ballot. You can learn more about Proposition 36 and work being done to stop it here.
