CLBC members curated the list to test the limits of the Legislature’s commitment to racial justice while seeking to avoid a wholesale rejection that could derail the quest for reparations.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The bills were drawn from two years of work by the California Reparations Task Force, which \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/reparations\">KQED has reported on since its inception\u003c/a>. The task force’s final report, published in June 2023, includes over 100 policy proposals, as well as a plan to provide direct cash payments to eligible residents.

And he blames the people inside City Hall for the problems San Francisco is facing and supports reforms to the city’s convoluted commission system.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m worried about the direction our city is heading in,” Lurie told KQED. “The City Hall insiders who got us into this mess, I don’t think, are equipped to get us out.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lurie believes his background in business and philanthropy has better positioned him to pull San Francisco out of a sluggish economic recovery following the pandemic.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Tipping Point founder was working blocks away from the World Trade Center on Sept. 11, 2001 and said the experience working at the Robin Hood Foundation, which helped rebuild downtown Manhattan, deeply influenced him.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I saw everything that morning,” Lurie said. “To be part of helping rebuild New York City, it was an honor.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Through nonprofit work, Lurie has already made inroads in City Hall, however. His nonprofit has helped build affordable housing with local government, and Lurie chaired the Super Bowl 50 committee.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I can call business leaders across this country,” he said. “We need action, and we need someone committed to the city.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>He’s an heir to the Levi Strauss fortune\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Lurie comes from a long line of San Francisco denim royalty. The heir to the Levis Strauss fortune said he is proud of his connections to the iconic brand.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I grew up in and around the company. I am proud of it. I saw Levi’s values firsthand,” he said. We took care of our LGBTQ workers… long before it was required by law.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lurie was born and raised in San Francisco, where his father, Brian Lurie, was a rabbi at Temple Emanu-El and ran the Jewish Federation for 17 years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“People he never met, he was helping. That had a huge influence on my life.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lurie also acknowledged how his wealthy background might set him apart from everyday voters.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I’m going to ask them (voters) to judge me on the choices I have made in my life,” Lurie said. “Everything in my body and soul has been for serving this community.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>He led — and completed — a major housing project in San Francisco\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>As CEO of Tipping Point, Lurie led construction on a 145-unit affordable housing project at 833 Bryant Street. With San Francisco struggling to build tens of thousands of units in its pipeline, Lurie said the Bryant Street project, which received $50 million through Tipping Point, will serve as a model for overcoming housing production delays.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label=\"Related Stories\" postID=\"news_11999653,news_12000444\"]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Let’s build a modular factory here that’s union-run,” he said. “This is the city that knows how, but we have become the city of ‘No, we can’t do that.’”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Lurie is a proponent for more housing at all income levels but said that as mayor, he would be focused on expanding options for middle-income families, such as teachers and firefighters and increasing development in the city’s commercial corridors.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>Lurie stresses City Hall needs more accountability\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“I am tired of these insiders that have built up a broken, ineffective and corrupt City Hall. I believe all of my opponents in this race have been a part of the problem,” Lurie said on Political Breakdown. “They have a lot of experience and they have a track record of doing less with more every single year.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>As mayor, Lurie said he would ramp up efforts to audit the nonprofits that San Francisco contracts out with to provide services.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“There’s going to be a lot of changes,” Lurie said, including that he would sit down with each department head upon entering office and then weekly. “They are going to be held to an account they simply have not been held to date.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>\u003cstrong>He wants an evidence-based approach to street-level issues\u003c/strong>\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>“What we have seen on our streets is shameful,” Lurie said. But “this is not something the city can do alone.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>If elected mayor, Lurie said, he wants to declare a citywide emergency order to direct resources to slow fentanyl overdoses. However, he has so far avoided calls to bring in forces like the National Guard, something his opponent Mark Farrell is advocating. “We need more mental health and more drug treatment beds,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>To slow the rate of people falling into homelessness, he said he also wants to expand resources like housing vouchers and improve rapid rehousing efforts for people who do lose their housing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n",

It didn’t matter to Gonzalez where they ate because he’d be with his two teenage daughters and Cristal, his wife of five years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After breakfast, the family was going to drive home to Los Angeles, where Gonzalez, 38, dreamed of starting a nonprofit organization to help at-risk youth. He would teach them how to build confidence and empathy, skills he developed over a decade through courses he took in prison. In L.A., he was going to take care of his aging parents. He and Cristal, who he’s known since he was 13, wanted to renew their vows, have more kids and build generational wealth, Gonzalez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>His stomach dropped when he learned his dreams would have to be put on hold.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In an attempt to unwind \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11114572/jerry-brown-pushes-earlier-release-of-felons-under-proposition-57\">Proposition 57\u003c/a>, a 2016 voter-approved ballot measure aimed to incentivize rehabilitation, promote public safety and reduce prison overcrowding, a lawsuit filed against the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation halted his release. Gonzalez is one of at least 100 people whose release date has been delayed as CDCR’s credit-earning regulations are disputed, according to court records. The regulations were challenged by the Criminal Justice Legal Foundation, a public interest law organization that filed the lawsuit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On May 29, Sacramento County Superior Court Judge Jennifer Rockwell ordered CDCR not to release many people serving a life sentence with the possibility of parole who had earned a slim chance to go home, including Gonzalez. CDCR appealed the ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now Gonzalez, who was sentenced to 21 years to life, said he likely won’t have breakfast with his family until 2028.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez said he learned about Rockwell’s order from a friend who was scheduled to be released days before him. The friend, who had family waiting outside the gates of the prison in Blythe, CA, had already changed into his civilian clothes. He was taken back to his cell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s when Gonzalez understood that it would be years — not days — before he’d be reunited with his family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is the equivalent to the loss of a loved one,” Gonzalez, a Mexican American, said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court order has a far-reaching impact on people serving life sentences with the possibility of parole. According to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sentencingproject.org/app/uploads/2022/08/No-End-in-Sight-Americas-Enduring-Reliance-on-Life-Imprisonment.pdf\">2021 report by The Sentencing Project\u003c/a>, a research and advocacy center, roughly one-third of California’s prison population is serving life sentences with the possibility of parole. The majority of those 34,000 incarcerated are Black or Latinx.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unfortunately, the court order punishes the people who have done the most to rehabilitate,” Heather MacKay, an attorney at the Prison Law Office, a Berkeley-based nonprofit that advocates for policy and law changes, said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her concern was echoed by other legal experts who spoke with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This order is affecting the people who are actually the safest to release,” said Heidi Rummel, director of the Post-Conviction Justice Project at the University of Southern California Gould School of Law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a \u003ca href=\"https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25059572/2023-significant-events-for-publication-032024.pdf\">2023 report by the Board of Parole Hearings\u003c/a>, roughly 5,200 people serving a life sentence were granted parole between 2011 and 2019. Recidivism rates are less than 3% within three years of release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In reporting this story, KQED spoke with five people impacted by the order. Some said they received letters from CDCR that they weren’t being released. Others, like Gonzalez, heard through word of mouth. Each person said they were devastated and confused.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12001658\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2200px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12001658\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-564030163.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2200\" height=\"1337\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-564030163.jpg 2200w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-564030163-800x486.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-564030163-1020x620.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-564030163-160x97.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-564030163-1536x933.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-564030163-2048x1245.jpg 2048w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-564030163-1920x1167.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2200px) 100vw, 2200px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Beds fill a gymnasium converted into a temporary ’emergency’ sleeping area at California State Prison, Los Angeles County, in 2007.

Of those, the agency anticipates roughly 20 people per month will be impacted by the court order.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘I’ve worked tremendously hard to change the person who I am’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez grew up in a low-income neighborhood in East Los Angeles. From third grade until high school, he played sports, including basketball, football and baseball. But at 16, he said he joined a gang. After high school, he attended community college to pursue a degree in criminal justice, hoping to find work in a juvenile hall when he graduated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2008, when Gonzalez was 22, he and a friend, Jessie Ramirez, went to a house party. According to court records, they were asked to leave but refused. Gonzalez argued with partygoers. He struck someone in the face with a bottle and a brawl ensued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez and Ramirez ran from the house. On their way out, according to court records, Ramirez shot and injured three people, one of whom was paralyzed from the waist down. Gonzalez was arrested and charged with attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon. In 2011, he was sentenced to 96 years to life in prison. The sentence was reduced to 21 years to life on appeal, Gonzalez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After sentencing, Gonzalez’s earliest date to be considered for release by the parole board was 2028.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, Proposition 57 passed, and the California constitution was amended.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure was divided into three distinct components. The first component gave discretion to juvenile court judges, rather than district attorneys, regarding whether youth could be tried in an adult court. The second created a parole consideration process for people who committed a nonviolent crime, and the third gave CDCR “authority to award credits to inmates for good behavior and approved rehabilitative or educational achievements,” according to the amended state constitution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Proposition 57 passed, CDCR updated its regulations through a regulatory process that expanded credit-earning opportunities for most incarcerated people, including those serving life sentences. In December 2018, the regulations were further revised.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez was eligible to earn more credits, which allowed him to have an earlier parole board hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I found out that they were changing laws, it felt liberating,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11999300]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said he poured hundreds of hours into self-help groups, including courses on victim impact and cognitive behavior. He led groups on coping mechanisms and overcoming adversity, and he earned seven associate degrees, as well as good conduct credits. On top of that, he worked as a peer literacy mentor and masonry technician.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I owe it to my victims,” Gonzalez said. “That’s why I’ve worked tremendously hard to change the person who I am today. It’s been an ever-evolving, everlasting journey of self-discovery and self-growth.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The credits advanced his initial parole hearing by roughly five and a half years. In November 2023, Gonzalez appeared before the board with over 160 pages of handwritten notes, the sixth draft of his parole packet. In 2023, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QTUkpeajeUeXJLMqYSf56CRldcLTVAGj/view\">report\u003c/a> by the Board of Parole Hearings, of the 4,078 people who were scheduled for an initial parole hearing, only 10% were approved for release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez beat the odds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many people don’t go home on their first parole suitability hearing,” Rummel said. “Some go home on their third. Some go home on their tenth. Some never go home. Some die in prison. So it’s not [that they’re] released under Prop. 57. It’s the ability to make their case to the board.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>Blocking releases ‘A huge step in the wrong direction’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Steve Berinti was released from Valley State Prison about 10 months ago after serving 21 years. Since then, he has secured a job, moved into a one-bedroom apartment in the Bay Area and enrolled at San Francisco State University, where he’s pursuing a psychology degree.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Berinti attributed much of his success to Proposition 57, which he said had a positive impact on prison culture.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Prop. 57 decreased the violence and increased hope,” he said. “Once it started kicking in, the prison was almost like a college campus. Nothing else like this had ever happened before.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said he managed a packed schedule — working prison jobs, attending classes and self-help groups — all of which motivated him to invest in living a life with purpose and honor those he had harmed. Berinti, who was sentenced to 25 years to life, earned enough credits to advance his initial parole hearing by roughly four years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It made transitioning into parole life so much easier,” Berinti, 47, said. “I feel like I started to live free while I was incarcerated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he learned about the court order blocking the release of people like Gonzalez, he said his heart sank.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a huge step in the wrong direction,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside postID=news_11934758]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The Criminal Justice Legal Foundation filed its lawsuit in January 2022. It’s had the effect of stalling part of Proposition 57’s promise to reduce overcrowding, which has been driven by decades of harsh sentencing in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CJLF’s board includes former Republican California Gov. Pete Wilson, who signed the “three strikes” law in 1994. It is one of California’s most significant sentencing laws, which disproportionately harms Black and brown families and communities. According to Stanford University’s Three Strikes Project, more than 45% of people serving life sentences under the Three Strikes law are Black.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kent Scheidegger, legal director of CJLF, previously served as chairman for the Criminal Law and Procedure Practice Group of the Federalist Society, an organization that describes itself as “a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Conservative groups have been trying to fight back at all of the criminal justice reform that’s happened in the last 10 years in California and this is part of that,” MacKay said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a recent interview with KQED, Scheidegger, who led the lawsuit against CDCR, said that the agency’s regulations hurt crime victims and contradict the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The result of this is to put a lot more criminals back on the street and shorten their sentences to considerably less than what they deserve,” Scheidegger said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit alleges that CDCR was using “dictatorial power to abrogate statutes and even constitutional provisions by mere regulation,” including overriding laws that limit credit earning for people serving life sentences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys representing the state of California and CDCR pushed back in court filings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The intent of the [Prop. 57] constitutional amendment is to grant CDCR broad authority to issue credit-earning regulations,” attorneys for the state Department of Justice wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other words, to achieve its duties set forth by Proposition 57, the agency has argued that it has the discretion to award and apply credits in a way it sees fit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rockwell was not convinced. In December 2023, she ruled that CDCR has no authority to advance parole eligibility for lifers based on credits earned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her ruling, Rockwell said CDCR’s regulations couldn’t trump an older statute that limits the application of credits for lifers. She also wrote that neither the text of Proposition 57 nor the ballot materials discuss the application of credits for lifers, specifically. As such, she “[could not] conclude” that voters intended to give CDCR the authority it claimed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MacKay and two other legal experts interviewed by KQED said the ruling was flawed. Specifically, they believe Rockwell curbed CDCR’s discretion by conflating language directed at the nonviolent parole component of Proposition 57 with the credit-earning component, which, according to the state constitution, gave CDCR “authority to award credits” despite existing laws. MacKay said those components are “completely separate clauses.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the judge overreached beyond either the language of Prop. 57 or whatever’s possible to discern from the voters’ intent from the ballot materials, which is always a tricky undertaking,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CDCR appealed the case in January. Until the current litigation is resolved, the agency said it is required to advance parole hearings for lifers who have earned Proposition 57 credits. But even if they are found suitable for release, CDCR’s hands are shackled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Rummel, the court’s decision involves major constitutional questions that the 3rd District Court of Appeal will have to address, a process that could take up to two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“By continuing to incarcerate people who have been determined not to pose a danger and fall within the lowest risk of recidivism is to contradict what the electorate was choosing when they voted for Prop. 57,” Rummel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keith Wattley, the founder and executive director of Uncommon Law, an Oakland-based law firm, called the ruling an insult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a horrible decision that is devastating to incarcerated people and their families who have worked very hard under extremely difficult circumstances to change their lives and demonstrate their readiness to return to the community,” he said. “It is an insult to the ‘California Model,’ which is supposed to recognize and reward the kinds of personal transformation being dismissed with this ruling.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[aside label='Related Coverage' tag='cdcr']\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>On July 29, over 250 legal advocates and organizations called on Gov.

CDCR appealed the ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Now Gonzalez, who was sentenced to 21 years to life, said he likely won’t have breakfast with his family until 2028.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez said he learned about Rockwell’s order from a friend who was scheduled to be released days before him. The friend, who had family waiting outside the gates of the prison in Blythe, CA, had already changed into his civilian clothes. He was taken back to his cell.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>That’s when Gonzalez understood that it would be years — not days — before he’d be reunited with his family.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is the equivalent to the loss of a loved one,” Gonzalez, a Mexican American, said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The court order has a far-reaching impact on people serving life sentences with the possibility of parole. According to a \u003ca href=\"https://www.sentencingproject.org/app/uploads/2022/08/No-End-in-Sight-Americas-Enduring-Reliance-on-Life-Imprisonment.pdf\">2021 report by The Sentencing Project\u003c/a>, a research and advocacy center, roughly one-third of California’s prison population is serving life sentences with the possibility of parole. The majority of those 34,000 incarcerated are Black or Latinx.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Unfortunately, the court order punishes the people who have done the most to rehabilitate,” Heather MacKay, an attorney at the Prison Law Office, a Berkeley-based nonprofit that advocates for policy and law changes, said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Her concern was echoed by other legal experts who spoke with KQED.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This order is affecting the people who are actually the safest to release,” said Heidi Rummel, director of the Post-Conviction Justice Project at the University of Southern California Gould School of Law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to a \u003ca href=\"https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/25059572/2023-significant-events-for-publication-032024.pdf\">2023 report by the Board of Parole Hearings\u003c/a>, roughly 5,200 people serving a life sentence were granted parole between 2011 and 2019. Recidivism rates are less than 3% within three years of release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In reporting this story, KQED spoke with five people impacted by the order. Some said they received letters from CDCR that they weren’t being released. Others, like Gonzalez, heard through word of mouth.

Of those, the agency anticipates roughly 20 people per month will be impacted by the court order.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch2>‘I’ve worked tremendously hard to change the person who I am’\u003c/h2>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez grew up in a low-income neighborhood in East Los Angeles. From third grade until high school, he played sports, including basketball, football and baseball. But at 16, he said he joined a gang. After high school, he attended community college to pursue a degree in criminal justice, hoping to find work in a juvenile hall when he graduated.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2008, when Gonzalez was 22, he and a friend, Jessie Ramirez, went to a house party. According to court records, they were asked to leave but refused. Gonzalez argued with partygoers. He struck someone in the face with a bottle and a brawl ensued.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez and Ramirez ran from the house. On their way out, according to court records, Ramirez shot and injured three people, one of whom was paralyzed from the waist down. Gonzalez was arrested and charged with attempted murder and assault with a deadly weapon. In 2011, he was sentenced to 96 years to life in prison. The sentence was reduced to 21 years to life on appeal, Gonzalez said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After sentencing, Gonzalez’s earliest date to be considered for release by the parole board was 2028.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In 2016, Proposition 57 passed, and the California constitution was amended.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The measure was divided into three distinct components. The first component gave discretion to juvenile court judges, rather than district attorneys, regarding whether youth could be tried in an adult court. The second created a parole consideration process for people who committed a nonviolent crime, and the third gave CDCR “authority to award credits to inmates for good behavior and approved rehabilitative or educational achievements,” according to the amended state constitution.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>After Proposition 57 passed, CDCR updated its regulations through a regulatory process that expanded credit-earning opportunities for most incarcerated people, including those serving life sentences. In December 2018, the regulations were further revised.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez was eligible to earn more credits, which allowed him to have an earlier parole board hearing.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“When I found out that they were changing laws, it felt liberating,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

He led groups on coping mechanisms and overcoming adversity, and he earned seven associate degrees, as well as good conduct credits. On top of that, he worked as a peer literacy mentor and masonry technician.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I owe it to my victims,” Gonzalez said. “That’s why I’ve worked tremendously hard to change the person who I am today. It’s been an ever-evolving, everlasting journey of self-discovery and self-growth.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The credits advanced his initial parole hearing by roughly five and a half years. In November 2023, Gonzalez appeared before the board with over 160 pages of handwritten notes, the sixth draft of his parole packet. In 2023, according to a \u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QTUkpeajeUeXJLMqYSf56CRldcLTVAGj/view\">report\u003c/a> by the Board of Parole Hearings, of the 4,078 people who were scheduled for an initial parole hearing, only 10% were approved for release.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Gonzalez beat the odds.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Many people don’t go home on their first parole suitability hearing,” Rummel said. “Some go home on their third.

Nothing else like this had ever happened before.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said he managed a packed schedule — working prison jobs, attending classes and self-help groups — all of which motivated him to invest in living a life with purpose and honor those he had harmed. Berinti, who was sentenced to 25 years to life, earned enough credits to advance his initial parole hearing by roughly four years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It made transitioning into parole life so much easier,” Berinti, 47, said. “I feel like I started to live free while I was incarcerated.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When he learned about the court order blocking the release of people like Gonzalez, he said his heart sank.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It’s a huge step in the wrong direction,” he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

It’s had the effect of stalling part of Proposition 57’s promise to reduce overcrowding, which has been driven by decades of harsh sentencing in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CJLF’s board includes former Republican California Gov. Pete Wilson, who signed the “three strikes” law in 1994. It is one of California’s most significant sentencing laws, which disproportionately harms Black and brown families and communities. According to Stanford University’s Three Strikes Project, more than 45% of people serving life sentences under the Three Strikes law are Black.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Kent Scheidegger, legal director of CJLF, previously served as chairman for the Criminal Law and Procedure Practice Group of the Federalist Society, an organization that describes itself as “a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Conservative groups have been trying to fight back at all of the criminal justice reform that’s happened in the last 10 years in California and this is part of that,” MacKay said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In a recent interview with KQED, Scheidegger, who led the lawsuit against CDCR, said that the agency’s regulations hurt crime victims and contradict the law.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The result of this is to put a lot more criminals back on the street and shorten their sentences to considerably less than what they deserve,” Scheidegger said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The lawsuit alleges that CDCR was using “dictatorial power to abrogate statutes and even constitutional provisions by mere regulation,” including overriding laws that limit credit earning for people serving life sentences.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Attorneys representing the state of California and CDCR pushed back in court filings.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“The intent of the [Prop. 57] constitutional amendment is to grant CDCR broad authority to issue credit-earning regulations,” attorneys for the state Department of Justice wrote.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In other words, to achieve its duties set forth by Proposition 57, the agency has argued that it has the discretion to award and apply credits in a way it sees fit.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But Rockwell was not convinced. In December 2023, she ruled that CDCR has no authority to advance parole eligibility for lifers based on credits earned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her ruling, Rockwell said CDCR’s regulations couldn’t trump an older statute that limits the application of credits for lifers. She also wrote that neither the text of Proposition 57 nor the ballot materials discuss the application of credits for lifers, specifically. As such, she “[could not] conclude” that voters intended to give CDCR the authority it claimed.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>MacKay and two other legal experts interviewed by KQED said the ruling was flawed. Specifically, they believe Rockwell curbed CDCR’s discretion by conflating language directed at the nonviolent parole component of Proposition 57 with the credit-earning component, which, according to the state constitution, gave CDCR “authority to award credits” despite existing laws. MacKay said those components are “completely separate clauses.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I think the judge overreached beyond either the language of Prop. 57 or whatever’s possible to discern from the voters’ intent from the ballot materials, which is always a tricky undertaking,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>CDCR appealed the case in January. Until the current litigation is resolved, the agency said it is required to advance parole hearings for lifers who have earned Proposition 57 credits. But even if they are found suitable for release, CDCR’s hands are shackled.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>According to Rummel, the court’s decision involves major constitutional questions that the 3rd District Court of Appeal will have to address, a process that could take up to two years.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“By continuing to incarcerate people who have been determined not to pose a danger and fall within the lowest risk of recidivism is to contradict what the electorate was choosing when they voted for Prop. 57,” Rummel said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Keith Wattley, the founder and executive director of Uncommon Law, an Oakland-based law firm, called the ruling an insult.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is a horrible decision that is devastating to incarcerated people and their families who have worked very hard under extremely difficult circumstances to change their lives and demonstrate their readiness to return to the community,” he said. “It is an insult to the ‘California Model,’ which is supposed to recognize and reward the kinds of personal transformation being dismissed with this ruling.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

And as president, she vowed that building up the middle class would be her “defining goal.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“This is personal for me,” she said. “The middle class is where I come from.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12001529\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 2000px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12001529\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167179772_qed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167179772_qed.jpg 2000w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167179772_qed-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167179772_qed-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167179772_qed-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167179772_qed-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167179772_qed-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vice President Kamala Harris arrives to formally accept the Democratic Party nomination for president on the last day of the Democratic National Convention on Aug. 22, 2024. \u003ccite>(Saul Loeb/AFP via Getty Images)\u003c/cite>\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003ch3>Harris leaned into justice in all forms\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Harris is a former prosecutor, but Thursday’s program leaned not just into holding people who break the law accountable but also highlighting victims, including those wronged by the justice system and wronged by Trump.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Among the speakers: Members of the so-called Central Park Five, five Black and Latino teenagers wrongfully convicted in New York for the 1989 rape and assault of a white female jogger. Trump took out full-page newspaper ads calling for the boys to face the death penalty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They spent more than a decade in prison before being exonerated in 2002. Korey Wise told the arena that their youth was stolen. Yusef Salaam, now a New York City Council member representing Harlem, also spoke.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another speaker, Courtney Baldwin, a human trafficking survivor who is now a youth organizer, said she endured a horrific ordeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I didn’t know it yet, but waiting on the other side were people who were fighting for survivors. One of them was Kamala Harris,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baldwin said Harris, as California Attorney General, shut down the sex trafficking website that made her abuse possible and filed criminal charges against its operators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She’s protected people like me her whole life, and I know she’ll fight for us as president,” Baldwin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her speech, Harris spoke about Wanda, her childhood best friend, who Harris said was sexually abused by her stepfather. Harris’ family took in Wanda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is one of the many reasons I became a prosecutor,” Harris said. “To protect people like Wanda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Broad promises, warnings and a cease-fire call\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Harris’ meteoric rise in the presidential race has been heavy on vibes and light on policy promises. On Thursday, she stuck with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris’ agenda included some leftover Biden to-do’s, such as passing voting rights legislation to reinstate requirements on certain states to gain federal approval before changing their election laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But mostly, Harris spoke of broad promises to foster collaboration with business and labor, end the nation’s housing shortage and enshrine federal abortion protections — all without much detail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris spent far more time warning of the ideas contained in Project 2025, a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11998288/what-is-project-2025-donald-trump-heritage-foundation-director-steps-down\">policy playbook written by Trump’s allies\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vice president summed it up simply: “They are out of their minds.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris also warned of the dangers of a second Trump presidency, one with considerably more power after the recent Supreme Court presidential immunity ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just imagine Donald Trump with no guardrails,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one of the biggest applause lines of the night, Harris called for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war and the release of hostages in Gaza. She first reiterated her support for Israel and its right to defend itself, then called what has happened in Gaza “devastating.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So many innocent lives lost. Desperate, hungry people fleeing for safety over and over again. The scale of suffering is heartbreaking,” she said. “President Biden and I are working to end this war such that Israel is secure, the hostages are released, the suffering in Gaza ends, and the Palestinian people can realize their right to dignity, security, freedom and self-determination.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The crowd roared in approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12001531\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1999px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12001531\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1999\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed.jpg 1999w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1999px) 100vw, 1999px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left to right, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, Vice President Kamala Harris, Minnesota Gov.

Harris’ message was intended to assure them she could be trusted with the keys to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our nation, with this election, has a precious, fleeting opportunity to move past the bitterness, cynicism and the divisive battles of the past,” she said. “A chance to chart a new way forward. Not as members of any one party or faction, but as Americans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was also the imagery: Chants of “U-S-A,” an arena full of people waving American flags as Springsteen’s “Born in the USA” blasted and a short speech from a Michigan sheriff. It might have reassured viewers that Harris is not the “communist” Donald Trump has labeled her.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>No Beyoncé, but we did find Newsom\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>A few hours before Harris took the stage, we were summoned to the club level of the United Center to interview a man who has led something of a parallel political life to the vice president: Gov. Gavin Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom and Harris were elected San Francisco mayor and district attorney, respectively, in the same 2003 election and took office the same day. While they’ve often been seen as political rivals, Newsom said Thursday that they had been in the same social circles for years prior to 2003, making his \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12001032/at-dnc-roll-call-california-shines-as-harris-seals-nomination\">role in sealing the symbolic nomination of Harris on Tuesday\u003c/a> especially sweet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was all surreal for both of us. It’s just a hell of a thing,” he said. “It was really kind of a powerful moment in terms of the narrative of our lives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom said Harris will be telling the story of California, one of inclusion and representation and sometimes of hardship and challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Social justice, racial justice. It’s about rights,” Newsom said. “I really believe that’s what we represent — the best of America”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom acknowledged that Trump will attack Harris and the Democrats in the next 74 days, but they’ll be ready.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know what’s coming. It’s spaghetti on the wall; they’re going to throw everything up,” Newsom said. “He’s not landing any punches right now. But, oh gosh, he will figure it out. And so none of us are naive about that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom believes having Harris at the top of the ticket will bolster Democrats up and down the ballot this fall, potentially impacting key battleground congressional races in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n",

But I’m no stranger to unlikely journeys,” she said, describing how she was raised by her mother, a cancer research scientist who moved to California from India.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I miss her every day, especially now,” Harris said. “And I know she’s looking down tonight and smiling.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Below are our five key takeaways from the final night of the Democratic National Convention at the United Center.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Trump took out full-page newspaper ads calling for the boys to face the death penalty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>They spent more than a decade in prison before being exonerated in 2002. Korey Wise told the arena that their youth was stolen. Yusef Salaam, now a New York City Council member representing Harlem, also spoke.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Another speaker, Courtney Baldwin, a human trafficking survivor who is now a youth organizer, said she endured a horrific ordeal.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“I didn’t know it yet, but waiting on the other side were people who were fighting for survivors. One of them was Kamala Harris,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Baldwin said Harris, as California Attorney General, shut down the sex trafficking website that made her abuse possible and filed criminal charges against its operators.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“She’s protected people like me her whole life, and I know she’ll fight for us as president,” Baldwin said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In her speech, Harris spoke about Wanda, her childhood best friend, who Harris said was sexually abused by her stepfather. Harris’ family took in Wanda.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“That is one of the many reasons I became a prosecutor,” Harris said. “To protect people like Wanda.”\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Broad promises, warnings and a cease-fire call\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>Harris’ meteoric rise in the presidential race has been heavy on vibes and light on policy promises. On Thursday, she stuck with that.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris’ agenda included some leftover Biden to-do’s, such as passing voting rights legislation to reinstate requirements on certain states to gain federal approval before changing their election laws.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But mostly, Harris spoke of broad promises to foster collaboration with business and labor, end the nation’s housing shortage and enshrine federal abortion protections — all without much detail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris spent far more time warning of the ideas contained in Project 2025, a \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/11998288/what-is-project-2025-donald-trump-heritage-foundation-director-steps-down\">policy playbook written by Trump’s allies\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The vice president summed it up simply: “They are out of their minds.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Harris also warned of the dangers of a second Trump presidency, one with considerably more power after the recent Supreme Court presidential immunity ruling.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Just imagine Donald Trump with no guardrails,” she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In one of the biggest applause lines of the night, Harris called for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war and the release of hostages in Gaza. She first reiterated her support for Israel and its right to defend itself, then called what has happened in Gaza “devastating.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“So many innocent lives lost. Desperate, hungry people fleeing for safety over and over again. The scale of suffering is heartbreaking,” she said. “President Biden and I are working to end this war such that Israel is secure, the hostages are released, the suffering in Gaza ends, and the Palestinian people can realize their right to dignity, security, freedom and self-determination.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The crowd roared in approval.\u003c/p>\n\u003cfigure id=\"attachment_12001531\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" style=\"max-width: 1999px\">\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-12001531\" src=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1999\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed.jpg 1999w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-800x533.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-1020x680.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-160x107.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/08/GettyImages-2167986116_qed-1920x1280.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1999px) 100vw, 1999px\">\u003cfigcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">From left to right, second gentleman Doug Emhoff, Vice President Kamala Harris, Minnesota Gov.

Harris’ message was intended to assure them she could be trusted with the keys to 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Our nation, with this election, has a precious, fleeting opportunity to move past the bitterness, cynicism and the divisive battles of the past,” she said. “A chance to chart a new way forward. Not as members of any one party or faction, but as Americans.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was also the imagery: Chants of “U-S-A,” an arena full of people waving American flags as Springsteen’s “Born in the USA” blasted and a short speech from a Michigan sheriff. It might have reassured viewers that Harris is not the “communist” Donald Trump has labeled her.\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>No Beyoncé, but we did find Newsom\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>A few hours before Harris took the stage, we were summoned to the club level of the United Center to interview a man who has led something of a parallel political life to the vice president: Gov. Gavin Newsom.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom and Harris were elected San Francisco mayor and district attorney, respectively, in the same 2003 election and took office the same day. While they’ve often been seen as political rivals, Newsom said Thursday that they had been in the same social circles for years prior to 2003, making his \u003ca href=\"https://www.kqed.org/news/12001032/at-dnc-roll-call-california-shines-as-harris-seals-nomination\">role in sealing the symbolic nomination of Harris on Tuesday\u003c/a> especially sweet.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“It was all surreal for both of us. It’s just a hell of a thing,” he said. “It was really kind of a powerful moment in terms of the narrative of our lives.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom said Harris will be telling the story of California, one of inclusion and representation and sometimes of hardship and challenge.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“Social justice, racial justice. It’s about rights,” Newsom said. “I really believe that’s what we represent — the best of America”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom acknowledged that Trump will attack Harris and the Democrats in the next 74 days, but they’ll be ready.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>“We know what’s coming. It’s spaghetti on the wall; they’re going to throw everything up,” Newsom said. “He’s not landing any punches right now. But, oh gosh, he will figure it out. And so none of us are naive about that.”\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Newsom believes having Harris at the top of the ticket will bolster Democrats up and down the ballot this fall, potentially impacting key battleground congressional races in California.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
