Pennsylvania Senate candidate John Fetterman said he was against “tough on crime” policies and “very excited” to support Philadelphia DA Larry Krasner’s criminal justice reforms.
Larry Krasner’s criminal justice reforms in a bid for a far-left group’s endorsement for lieutenant governor in early 2018.Reclaim Philadelphia, Fetterman vowed to use the lieutenant governor’s office “as a bully pulpit” for criminal justice reform.
“There is a real opportunity to build a statewide platform that elevates and exposes the damage created by the school-to-prison pipeline, the prison industrial complex, and ‘tough on crime’ policies like ‘Stop and Frisk’ and cash bail,” he wrote. Fetterman, who went on to win the lieutenant governor’s race that year, is now running against Republican celebrity heart surgeon Dr. Mehmet Oz for the open Senate seat, and criticism of his support for soft-on-crime policies, has narrowed his polling lead.
