Roc Nation’s Jay-Z and Dreamchasers’ Meek Mill of REFORM Alliance are continuing to bring justice to prisoners by passing a new probation bill in California.

Governor Gavin Newsom signed a new bill, AB 1950, that will amend the state probation system. The new law limits adult probation sentences to be capped at one year maximum for misdemeanors and two years for felony offenses. 

Meek Mill stated on Instagram that the bill will have no more long probation periods in California. Although it is only in California, at the moment. REFORM plans to expand this bill all over the country.

“I want to thank Governor Newsom for his leadership in signing AB 1950, the most transformative probation bill in this country to date,” Jay-Z says.

Gavin Newsom also signed some major bills that bans police officers from using choke-holds during arrests and another that will allow the Department of Justice to independently investigate police-involved shootings when requested by local law enforcement agencies or district attorneys.

REFORM Alliance began after Meek Mill was re-imprisoned for things that were unjust. Meek Mill and REFORM then joined forces in a commitment to changing an abundance of supervision laws such as probation and parole policies that will impact others in similar unfortunate situations.

REFORM Alliance purpose is to give a voice to the voiceless to change laws, policies, and practices that are involved in injustice behavior.
