Jason Pye joins us from Due Process Institute. It's is a nonpartisan organization that works toward the goal of criminal justice reform, specifically in lobbying Congress against over-criminalization and for very specific improvements in sentencing and rehabilitation of drug crimes like simple possession, among other things. The Republican Professor thought it would be good to get a conversation going on these issues, as there is probably a lot of common ground . Republicans might learn a lot by hearing how the opposition to irrational gun control (rooted in a healthy understanding of the police power) may intersect with issues in due process and rehabilitation. Folks who think there is over-criminalization in regulation of tools of personal protection might find there are connections to other aspects of Constitutional law and common decency. Take a look at Due Process Institute's website at https://idueprocess.org/ Their Substack at https://dueprocess.substack.com/ You can also follow Jason on Twitter at @pye . The Republican Professor is a pro-getting-the-police-power-right, pro-anti-overcriminalization podcast. Therefore, welcome Jason Pye of Due Process Institute !

A recent headline described criminal justice reform as the "only Trump era achievement that Democrats want to continue." While that headline may say more about our previous President than CJ reform, it is an important reminder of the strong bipartisan work being done on everything from crack cocaine and powder cocaine sentencing, to home incarceration. Today's guest, Jason Pye, with the Due Process Institute, played a critical role in the passage of the First Step Act, and now hopes to build on that success with a broad coalition of support. On today's podcast we break down trending policies in Washington, and what else should happen this year.

Jason Pye, VP of Legislative Affairs for FreedomWorks, took an interesting road to get into the policy world.

Josh discusses the recent compromise promising a combination of the First Step Act with the best parts of the Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act. You can read our most recent Orange Is the New Black Recap or look back through all of the recaps. Kathy Morse was one of the inmates featured in the Bill Moyers documentary "Rikers: Am American Jail." Our original First Step Act episode of this podcast was Episode 18 and featured Ames Grawert of the Brennan Center, Jessica Jackson Sloan of Cut 50, and Jason Pye of FreedomWorks. Janie and Buzz founded the Prison Creative Arts Project at the University of Michigan. The President and House and Senate Leadership moved recently to combine the First Step Act and Chuck Grassley's Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act. In case you forgot, Prisons and Jails, as currently constructed don't make us safer. You can read the different sections of the First Step Act to see why Jeff Sessions is not given unprecedented or unaccountable power. Recently, the Brennan Center for Justice, a former opponent has indicated that they are likely to support the new compromise legislation. Distance matters and this article is a good summary of the evidence for why visitation and distance are critical to better prisoner outcomes. The Mandatory Minimums quote came from this great article by Erik Luna. The Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act included new mandatory minimums. The Department of Justice Letter opposing the First Step Act was almost as shocking as Senator Grassley's response. My friend Jason Pye and his co-worker Sarah Anderson at FreedomWorks wrote a very detailed response to the DOJ letter. Here is a great summary of the problems with electronic monitoring. I do not think that John Pfaff has written an article about privatization but I have had many conversations about this issue on Twitter.

Josh discusses the First Step Act with Ames Grawert, Jessica-Jackson Sloan, and Jason Pye The First Step Act will be voted on in the U.S. House of Representatives on 5/22/2018. Ames Grawert is a Senior Counsel at the Brennan Center for Justice. Jessica Jackson-Sloan is the co-founder of the Cut 50 initiative. Jason Pye is the Vice-President for Legislative Affairs at Freedom Works. Jess Sessions is well-known for his antipathy towards criminal justice reform and for his undying commitment to mandatory minimum sentencing. Jared Kushner's father did 14 months in a Federal facility in Montgomery. Senator Chuck Grassley has introduced the complementary (or rival) Sentencing Reform and Corrections Act, which is currently in the US Senate. I misspoke, a President cannot "table" passed legislation but he can refuse to sign it for up to ten days. If the President does not sign a passed bill after ten days it becomes law. The First Step has exposed splits in the left-leaning criminal justice reform community and between the right-leaning criminal justice reform community and the more conservative members of Congress. Not surprisingly, it has also created a fuss among the Grassley contingent in favor of sentencing reform. Alex Gudich is the Deputy Director of the Cut 50 Initiative and another in my long line of criminal justice reform Twitter friends. Robert Caro's book about Lyndon Baines Johnson, "Master of the Senate" is part of an incredible series on the late President. Lauren-Brooke Eisen was my guest on Episode 5 of the Decarceration Nation podcast, we discussed her excellent book "Inside Private Prisons." Ames was one of the co-authors of the report, "Criminal Justice One Year Into the Trump Administration." Ames was talking about Jennifer Weiss-Wolf and her book, "Periods Gone Public." More about my #Bars2Ballots initiative can be learned on episode 17 of Decarceration Nation or from this article I wrote on Medium. Cut 50 and many other organizations, including two I volunteer with, are fighting for full passage of the Dignity For Incarcerated Women Act. Jessica was not only invited to the FIRC event earlier this year but just two days after our interview she was on stage at the White House supporting the First Step Act. Topeka K. Sam spoke at the White House event yesterday and is one of Cut 50's brightest lights. Cut 50's has built a First Step Act Site where you can read the stories of people the bill would help. Here is the article Jason wrote that first inspired me to contact Jason and the other article he mentioned that he posted the next day. Jason also wrote an article yesterday after President Trump publically endorsed the First Step Act. Pat Nolan is a conservative advocate for Criminal Justice Reform. Kevin Ring was both formerly incarcerated and formeLegislativelative Aide on Capitol Hill. Now he is also a supporter of Criminal Justice Reform. The letter I respond to at the end of Episode 18 was written by Richard Durbin, Cory Booker, Kamala Harris, Sheila Jackson-Lee, and John Lewis. I greatly respect all of these legislators but respectfully disagree with them on the importance of passing the First Step Act. Oddly enough, the day after I name dropped Federal Bureau of Prisons Director Mark S. Inch, he resigned. My reference to Tom Cotton and Fentanyl refers to his attempts to increase penalties, and mandatory minimums, for the distribution of the drug fentanyl.

We should have more kids. We then talk about Jason's work with Freedom Works & the House Freedom Caucus and how to connect with the core conservative movement that is influencing policy within Congress. For predictions... Matthias: bots (automated comment generators) will play an increasing role in the dark part of campaigns Jason: The Georgia Bulldogs will go 9-3 and will beat Georgia Tech in the last game of the season Zach: The Magnificent 7 remake will be great Jordan: Nothing at the 2016 Video Music Awards will be weirder than the 2016 presidential campaign
