Did you know that in Illinois the courts (including the Juvenile Detention Centers) are not subject to the Freedom of Information Act? As the most powerful branch of government, it is past time to shine a light on the judicial branch, to ensure the courts (and Juvenile Detention Centers) are upholding the principles of equity, accountability and efficacy. And yet after two years of trying, our lawmakers continue to block even a hearing on why it's so important to move the courts - and how they operate - out of the shadows. When they won't give you a hearing in Springfield, take the hearing to the people! I hope you'll join us for an important conversation that impacts us all. Learn more and register here: https://lnkd.in/gFF8eRHq “Every day, thousands of people enter courthouses across Illinois seeking justice. They might be asking for protection from an abuser, fighting to keep their home, working to keep custody of their children, or navigating a criminal case as a victim or a defendant [They might be a child being held at the Juvenile Temporary Detention Center]. We know the court system has historically favored people with wealth and racial privilege and disproportionately harmed those without. But we can only fight for a more fair and just court system if we have complete information about the workings of the courts. Without transparency, it’s impossible to have true accountability.” - Jonah Newman, Injustice Watch #transparency #accountability #courtsmatter #justice Briana Payton Jonah Newman Curtis J. Tarver II Bradly Johnson MPA Adam M. Alonso
We're hosting a panel from 12-1:30 p.m. on April 25 with Common Cause Illinois at BUILD Chicago Community Center to explore how Illinois Courts impact the lives of everyday people and why it is time they are subject to FOIA. Panelists include Rep. Curtis Tarver II, Illinois State Representative; Briana Peyton, Director for Policy & Advocacy at the Chicago Appleseed Center for Fair Courts; and Jonah Newman, Injustice Watch Editor. BGA Policy Analyst Sophia Van Pelt will be moderating. Learn more and register here: https://lnkd.in/gFF8eRHq

🔍 A Closer Look at Impact 🔍 Coalitions are not just support networks; they are powerful engines for legislative change. By uniting voices from various sectors to advocate for common goals, coalitions can push for policy reforms that might otherwise be unachievable by individual organizations. The journey from concept to legislation is fraught with challenges, but coalitions navigate this path with resilience and determination, demonstrating the undeniable power of collective advocacy. At TWG, we believe in harnessing this power to create a fairer, more just society for all. #LegislativeChange #CollectivePower #PolicyReform

Aim for accountability : 📢 Advocacy for change in legislative and/or regulatory texts, particularly in terms of harm reduction, must absolutely rely on formal or informal community-based organizations (CBOs), and local communities (elected and local leaders), so that it is not « above ground », with results parachuted onto the beneficiaries and populations. The building must be built like a pyramid with a wide base.
