Keeping people detained during a hurricane in evacuation zones is inhumane for people detained and workers of the jail. We must have better evacuation protocols for ppl in jails to reduce the harm as stronger storms continue across the country.

I just contacted PINELLAS COUNTY JAIL which is in a mandatory evacuation zone for Hurricane Milton. They told me that as of now they are NOT evacuating but "have a plan in place.

I called the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office to see if they were moving people at the jail, who are in a mandatory evacuation zone for the hurricane heading to Tampa, Florida. The answers are vague. (1/)

In 2019 @JBPritzker quoted “Illinois will continue to stand strong, even as our country takes a dangerous turn toward deeper disenfranchisement of minority communities.” Let’s keep this promise and pass voting in prison. sign.moveon.org/petitions/chic…
