Testimonies

"In prison, time crawls — but a visit brings life back inside the walls. For a moment, you’re not just an inmate; you’re a husband, a father, a friend. Visits aren’t just comfort, they’re hope — a reminder you still matter, that your story isn’t over. Without them, the silence and isolation would consume you."

"This bill is bigger than FOTi and PUA, it’s about humanity, dignity, and change. Right now, countless incarcerated people are cut off from their loved ones for arbitrary reasons, leaving families broken and hope diminished. This legislation would restore that vital connection, giving families the chance to heal together and creating pathways that lower recidivism. At its heart, this bill is about keeping love alive, even behind walls."
