- New activist pressure to defeat retail crime bill
The Vera Institute of Justice and Dream.org are launching a $500,000 campaign to oppose the Combating Organized Retail Crime Act, a bipartisan bill targeting organized retail crime. The groups argue the legislation increases incarceration without addressing root causes and aim to pressure Democrats in the Senate to block its passage. Some Democratic lawmakers, including Reps. Summer Lee and Shontel Brown, support the activists' stance.
