Larry won the Democratic nomination for District Attorney of Philadelphia last month by a 30-point margin -- an enormous victory not just for our city, but for our entire movement.
Last summer, hundreds of thousands of Americans took to the streets to demand reforms to our criminal justice system. Larry’s victory in Philadelphia is a testament to the strength of that movement. And this victory will serve as inspiration to countless other candidates in cities across the country who are ready to turn the page on the “tough-on-crime” and “lock-em-up” policies of the past.
It's important to remember that Larry's victory was a direct result of the movement you helped build. Thanks to you, our movement is gaining strength and pushing forward.
Our fight, however, is not over. We still have a general election in November, when Larry faces off against Chuck Peruto, a right-wing candidate who would take our city -- and movement -- backward if elected.
Thank you for all you did to make this victory possible. And thanks for staying with us in the fight.
Onward,
Team Krasner
