"In your 3+ years as the District Attorney, you have increased diversity within your office and your management team, including several LGBTQ+ individuals. You have instituted smart reform within the criminal justice system without sacrificing public safety: an expansion of diversion for non-violent offenders; the creation of the juvenile diversion system aimed at disrupting the school-to-prison pipeline; and the forming of the Conviction and Sentence Review Unit, which examines post-conviction claims of innocence and reviews sentences to determine whether sentences should be reduced.  Your approach toward criminal justice is being copied all across the country."
