An excellent letter to the governor, posted on December 4, 2009 at Prison Talk.com. Once this was up there, everyone else started writing letters and making photocopies to hand out everywhere! These folks are rocking!

Dear Governor Brewer,

I am writing you today with regards to the current state of the Arizona budget and the unconfirmed request, by your office, for Arizona residents to donate financial aid to our state in hopes to relieve some of our state’s deficit.

I am flabbergasted that Arizona has resorted to requesting “hand outs” to over-come the short falls of our elected officials. I will tell you what I will do to help overcome my share of this state’s problem, if you care to listen....

Sincerely,

Another loved one of a prisoner

    I'm with her... My husband has served 8 years of his 12.75 year sentence so far. It was his first offence, a car accident where he was sober. He also has been in NO trouble, no tickets for 8 years in. He has been recommended for release by the clemency board but was shot down. The warden of Lewis prison recommended his release, but was also shot down. If he could be released on house arrest, put an ankle monitor on him, whatever... just let him come home and help contribute to his family and the economy. He has multiple job offers waiting for him upon his release. Just let my husband come home.
