Tim is currently coordinating the Criminal Justice challenge, which addresses issues such as judicial reform, the prison system, environmental justice, and the drug trade.  As rates of incarceration in the U.S. continue to grow at incredible rates, and continue to take shape along lines of race and economic privilege, it is increasingly clear that failure to resolve such issues all but precludes progress towards a more democratic society for much of America.  Recognizing that the difference between just and unjust society will be more profound for our generation than any before, the Roosevelt Institution is putting its weight behind the goal of achieving the former.   The Roosevelt Institution is a nonpartisan, nonprofit national think tank devoted to bringing students' policy ideas to the policy process.
