Every year, about 11,500 people are serving time in jail for something they didn't do. The Innocence Project uses DNA and other scientific advancements to free the innocent, as well as prevent wrongful convictions.  AND, they work to help each person freed to rebuild their life post-release. Since 1992, they have freed or exonerated 251 people and passed 250 policy reforms.

This month the Innocence Project has the opportunity to win up to a $100,000 grant to continue their impactful work. AND, all they need is your (free) vote!

Human Rights Day is observed annually around the world on December 10, 2024. It commemorates the anniversary of one of the world's most groundbreaking global pledges: the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR). This landmark document enshrines the inalienable rights that everyone is entitled to as a human being - regardless of race, colour, religion, sex, language, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.

Join with us in pledging respect and kindness to all this Human Rights Day. Take 30 (free) seconds and accept the pledge: https://standup4humanrights.org/en/index.html#pledge

Decades in the making, the Social Security Fairness Act would eliminate a provision that reduces Social Security payments to some retirees who also collect a pension from jobs that aren't covered by the retirement program, such as state and federal workers including teachers, police officers and U.S. postal workers. It would also end a second provision that reduces Social Security benefits for those workers' surviving spouses and family members. 

The act has just passed in the House! Now, let's get it over the finish line in the Senate.
