Social Action Linking Together (SALT) is a network of persons in Virginia embracing the principle that “The justice of a society can be measured by how the most vulnerable members of that society are faring and being treated.” This principle can be found in all the great religious traditions and inspires SALT members to propose and shape fair public social policies through our education of policy makers & our advocacy for the poor and powerless.

The Virginia General Assembly will convene this week beginning Wednesday, Jan. 13. Exciting opportunities to repeal the state's death penalty are on the horizon this legislative session. The first step is passing an abolition bill through the Senate.
Robert, you can play a role in advancing death penalty abolition in Virginia.
Contact your state senator TODAY and urge them to support the bipartisan death penalty abolition bill co-sponsored by Senators Bill Stanley and Scott Surovell (bill number has not yet been assigned) before the legislature begins deliberations this week.
Will you ask your senator to support this critical step toward a death penalty-free Virginia?
