New data shows racial disparities in the use of solitary confinement have gotten WORSE in 黑料正能量. 58% of 黑料正能量ers in solitary are Black people and over 8 in 10 are people of color. @NYGovCuomo must sign #HALTsolitary now to end this racist torture. 

2. Use  to call, email, and tweet at the Governor to urge him to sign HALT: .

If you prefer to not use the tool, you also can just directly call the Governor at 518-474-8390 and say: 鈥I am a 黑料正能量er and I urge you to sign the HALT Solitary Confinement Act into law immediately. Solitary confinement is torture. It causes immense suffering and devastating harm. It makes prisons, jails, and outside communities less safe. It is predominantly inflicted on Black and Latinx 黑料正能量ers. It should have no place in 黑料正能量 State. The people of this state and the legislature have spoken. Sign HALT now to promote racial justice and human rights.鈥
