DESCRIPTION:On June 8th, the Board of State and Community Corrections will vote on 
 funding for the Contra Costa jail expansion. Then the proposal will come 
 back to the board of supervisors for a final vote, which could happen as 
 soon as the following Tuesday. The expansion will cost $25 million plus $5 
 million per year for 10 years. It will provide more beds for ICE rentals 
 (in the old building) and for mass incarceration. Sheriff Livingston met 
 with Jeff  Sessions on the day the Board of Supervisors approved the 
 application. We don't want the Trump agenda in Contra Costa County!  They 
 are touting this expansion as an effort to increase mental health care in 
 the jail but only two new mental health staffers are in the budget of the 
 proposal. That is a ruse. The community wants a transparent review of how 
 mental health care is delivered in the jail, not a bigger jail. Also, bail 
 reform (SB 10) could reduce the inmate population significantly. Come tell 
 the Board that we dont want the jail expansion. We want that money to be 
 spent on services to keep people out of jail in the first place! Each 
 person gets two minutes to speak. One if it's crowded. If you don't speak, 
 we still need your support! Bring a small sign to hold inside or a larger 
 sign to hold outside if you can.\n
