Connecticut is spending billions every year to arrest and incarcerate predominantly low-income and Black and Latinx people. At the same time, many people cannot find affordable housing, cancer patients must set up GoFundMe pages for their medical care, and teachers and students are stuck holding fundraisers to buy basic supplies.

This is wrong. But we can fix it. Sign this petition to demand the Governor and legislature #CutShutInvestCT:

• CUT the number of people detained in CT jails and prisons. Cut the budgets used for caging people.

• SHUT down prisons.

• INVEST in real community safety: housing, health care, education, and jobs.
