                                <br>
                                <b>REMINDER:</b> There will be a very important Public Hearing: Please join us in Action! <br>
                                <br>
                                <b>Wednesday, August 23<br>
                                10:00 am<br>
                                State Capitol, Room 330, Southwest</b><br>

                                <i><br>
                                This is the public hearing regarding the nomination of Daniel Gabler as the new permanent chair of the Parole Commission.</i><br>
                                <br>
                                About 3,000 parole-eligible prisoners are systematically being denied a fair chance to earn their freedom - something the judges who sentenced them back in the 80's and 90's assumed they would have.  <br>
                                <br>
                                To better understand this issue, please take a little time to look through <a href="http://org2.salsalabs.com/dia/track.jsp?v=2&c=zZhPwbmnPF7Go%2BLXuQxzOWl3bRE0BQ%2BE">WISDOM’S BOOK OF LETTERS</a>.  You can see what this issue is about and why it is such a nightmare for the men and women caught up in it.<br>
                                <br>
                                Please share this info with members of your organization, your friends, your Facebook contacts, etc.<br>
                                 <br>
                                The breakdown of the parole system is a seldom-discussed serious injustice.  <br>
                                    •    All parole-eligible people have been in prison for at least 17 years, most of them far longer than the judge who sentenced them anticipated.  <br>
                                    •    Many were very young at the time of their crimes and are now in their 40's and 50's.  <br>
                                    •    Hundreds of them are trusted to leave prison unsupervised every day to work at jobs in the community, or even to work in the State Capitol and the Governor's residence.  <br>
                                <br>
                                It is time they got a chance to re-join their families. It is time to save millions of taxpayer dollars. It is time to relieve some pressure on our overcrowded prisons.</span><br>
