Reno v. American Civil Liberties Union, 521 U.S. 844 (1997): Case Brief Summary

Arizona sold the shuttered Marana Prison to a private prison company that operates ICE detention facilities. This is deeply concerning and would cement Arizona’s position as a detention state for the national anti-immigrant agenda. | ACLU of Arizona

ACLU Smart Justice leaders Leah Farrington and Alexandria Hunt testified to the House Criminal Justice Reform Committee on behalf of HB 2261. It passed unanimously! This bill will bring positive change to women and families impacted by incarceration, including improved access to period products, increased protections for pregnant people in prison, and keeping parents of young kids in facilities within 250 miles of their homes. The bill now moves to the Senate. | ACLU of Arizona
