HB 4251 Testimony

This is a recording of my public testimony on April 17 in Austin, Tx, in favor of House Bill 4251 which will create guidelines for college-in-prison programs that make use of Pell grants beginning in the Fall of 2023. I thought it was important to post this for those incarcerated so you can see that, even if you cannot vote in your state as a consequence of your conviction, you can still be politically active on issues you believe are important. In Texas, we cannot vote while on parole or probation.
