Are you a former or current corrections professional against the death penalty? Did you work in South Carolina, or do you now live in South Carolina?
If the answer to both of these questions is "yes," we invite you to add your name to a letter addressed to Governor McMaster to stop executions. This includes any profession within the Department of Corrections, the Department of Juvenile Justice, or the Board of Probation, Pardons, and Parole (e.g., officers, social workers, healthcare professionals, maintenance staff, wardens, administrators, etc.).
Go to bit.ly/CorrectionsProfessionalsSC to take action and sign the letter!

Sign the Petition
Are you the leader of a religious or spiritual community in South Carolina? In a state where over 80 percent of people identify with a faith tradition, including Governor McMaster, people of faith can be powerful voices for justice. We encourage you to add your name to this letter asking the governor to stop pursuing the death penalty in South Carolina. Please share the letter with others as well. We are pleased to collaborate with religious and spiritual leaders of multiple coalitions and traditions for the launch of this letter.
Advocate.
