On May 21, 2012 the
California Assembly unanimously passed AB 2530, a bill that would ban the most
dangerous forms of shackling of incarcerated women who are pregnant.
We want to thank everyone who took action on this bill through Take Action California.
We have two more hurdles to clear: the Senate & the Governor's office - This is the third year we've tried to outlaw the barbaric practice of shackling and with your help we can do it.
Please stay tuned. For more information contact: karen@prisonerswithchildren.org
