Content: Join the No New Prisons IL Campaign for an upcoming press conference on Wednesday, April 15th, at 9:00 AM. The event will take place at 555 W Monroe St, Chicago, IL 60661. The No New Prisons Illinois Campaign is calling for the removal of $900 million allocated for new prison construction from the state budget. We believe that these funds should instead support housing, healthcare, and education rather than incarceration. Our campaign envisions a future that prioritizes community resources over prisons. We believe that public safety is rooted in stable communities, not incarceration. This press conference aims to amplify calls for budget adjustments in favor of community investment.
