Join the New York Civil Liberties Union's Suffolk County Chapter and other partner organizations for an information session on the upcoming election for District Attorney in Suffolk County. When it comes to the criminal justice system, district attorneys are some of the most powerful players. Their job is to represent “The People” in criminal court by enforcing the law and prosecuting those who commit crimes. The choices your DA makes impact major social issues, including economic justice, public health, immigrants’ rights, racial disparities, and our public education system. Our info session will cover the role of the DA in our county and the questions you should be asking your candidates on important criminal justice issues.
