This is a new newsletter started by inmates forming a RSOL support group while currently incarcerated. I'd encourage everybody, those especially dealing with this now, to check it out.

From the RSOL Digest, Feb 2014

Potpourri

Many of you will remember a letter printed in the Digest several months ago from an inmate named Jay. Jay had organized a group of fellow inmates as an RSOL support group that he has now named the INSIDERS. It was Jay and his group that prepared the lovely Christmas card that was printed in the December issue.

Jay has developed a newsletter, and he sent it to us and introduces it with this:

"I have enclosed a copy of the first ever INSIDERS newsletter. My efforts are to try and get as many inmates and each of their individual families involved as possible. The purpose of the newsletter is to provide information for offenders and non-offenders alike. I also think if some see that someone from the inside is making an effort to connect with others, then they may help push some others to become more involved in these reform issues.

I feel the information is significant enough to be included in the RSOL newsletter that will be published in February for as many as possible to see. I want the INSIDERS group to grow--not just what is there now, but inmates, male and female, from all over to join in the effort. This is my intention with this newsletter."

We agree, and are happy to provide an outlet for Jay's INSIDERS newsletter. For Jay's primary audience, those behind bars, the text of the newsletter, along with an open letter to congressmen, follows here. For everyone else, they can be viewed by clicking here.
