Advocacy That Drives Change We took action and mobilized our members: Lobbied on 36 measures, including supporting appropriations for Federal Defender Services, the Prohibiting Punishment of Acquitted Conduct Act, and the Clean Slate Act. (No private foundation or government funding is used to support lobbying efforts.) NACDL and its members sent 556 letters to Congress on criminal legal reform issues that include CARES Act home confinement, expanding home confinement, the EQUAL ACT eliminating drug disparity in sentencing, and more. Submitted 12 formal and informal comments to federal agencies. Membership in the End the Trial Penalty Coalition — founded by NACDL — rose to 25 stakeholder groups spanning the political spectrum.
