SF DA @ChesaBoudin has fought for a more fair, effective, and accountable justice system.

Now Republicans, the police union, and the rich are banding together to overturn the results of the election and the will of the voters.

We won't let them: StandWithChesa.com
Chesa promised to end mass incarceration.

Despite historic obstacles, he cut San Francisco's jail population by 40 percent to prevent a COVID-19 outbreak and crime rates fell 30 percent. #StandWithChesa

Chesa pledged to take sexual assault seriously.

He followed through with a new program that will allow survivors to get toxicology tests up to five days after an assault. #StandWithChesa

When Chesa was elected, he vowed to transform the DA’s office to start holding police accountable.

He kept his promise.

For the first time ever, a cop is being charged with homicide in San Francisco. #StandWithChesa

Chesa created a new policy so that police officers who are dishonest, discriminatory, racist, or commit misconduct will be unable to testify in court.

Another campaign promise fulfilled. #StandWithChesa

On the campaign trail, Chesa called the death penalty “undeniably cruel and inconsistent with the values of a human society.”

In the SF DA office, Chesa re-sentenced the city’s only death row prisoner to life in prison. #StandWithChesa

Chesa promised to fight for workers’ rights.

He has sued delivery service DoorDash and in-home service provider Handy for misclassifying workers as independent contractors to deny them benefits.

Chesa stands with workers. We must #StandWithChesa!

Republicans, the police union, and the ultra-wealthy are spending millions to overturn the results of @ChesaBoudin’s election and undo his progress on creating real public safety.

It will take all of us to stop them.

As the Derek Chauvin trial begins, let’s back up for a second.

Why did Chauvin think he could kill George Floyd in the first place?

Why did he think that he had a right to do whatever he wanted with this Black man’s life and face no consequences?

Decades of reinforcement.
For too long, police have murdered and maimed our people without consequences.

The result? Police believe that they live above the law. Because in many ways, THEY HAVE BEEN.

That is exactly why we formed Real Justice – to change that. /2
We have been organizing day and night, crafting campaign materials, raising funds, and organizing volunteers to elect district attorneys across the country who WILL hold police accountable.

Our efforts are working: we’ve elected over a dozen district attorneys since 2017. /3

Meet @Krasner4DA. Larry Krasner was among the first candidates @RealJusticePAC backed in prosecutor elections in 2017. When Krasner launched his campaign in a crowded field of 7 candidates last year, he was widely considered "completely unelectable" for his unapologetic platform.
Larry is a lifelong civil rights lawyer and had gained notoriety over the years for defending activists from #BlackLivesMatter, ActUp, and #Occupy. He ran on a platform of ending the death penalty, tackling mass incarceration, treating drug addiction as a disease not a crime.
He promised “transformational change” in the district attorney’s office aimed at reversing “a system that has systemically picked up black and brown people.” @RealJusticePAC raised more direct donations for Larry Krasner than any other endorsing organization.
