In addition to restoring voting rights, I will make sure that those who leave prison are also able to find housing, employment and healthcare. Will go a long way towards making sure they can get back on their feet, fully participate in economic and civic life, be well enough to live to their full potential.. and less likely to be incarcerated again. It’s the right thing to do and its a benefit not only to the formerly incarcerated but to all of us.. was visiting with staff and prisoners at San Quentin yesterday and was told it costs $80k year to lock someone up there.. San Quentin also offers a model of transition into civilian world, with learning opportunities, accreditation, skills training, etc — gives prisoners help they need to have purpose and function on the outside
