The coalition was founded in 2001 after more than 100 people had been released from death rows across the nation after having been found wrongfully convicted.

Arnold Lies, Tookie Dies Last May, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger changed the Department of Corrections to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, a renaming many believed signaled a shift of the state from exclusively punishing criminals to a belief that with help, prisoners could turn their lives around. Last night, Schwarzenegger refused to stop the execution of a man who, while locked up, went from a gang leader to a prominent crusader against guns, drugs and violence. It's hard to imagine a better exam...

A People's History of UC Weapons Lab Management 
Over the past several decades students and faculty of the University of California, often in tandem with nuclear disarmament NGOs in California and New Mexico, have conducted a series of campaigns to end the UC's involvement in nuclear weapons research, design, testing, and production at the Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore laboratories.

AB1121-AB1121-AB1121! ("California Moratorium on Execution Act") "Perhaps there was a time when Schwarzenegger might have at least delayed the death of Stanley Tookie Williams until the California Assembly could consider the merits of AB1121, which would impose a moratorium on capital punishment while a commission assesses whether its application in this state is "fair, just and accurate." The first hearing on that bill, authored by Assemblyman Paul Koretz, D-West Hollywood, is Jan. 10 -- one week before the next scheduled execution in Calif...
