Abstract

This essay measures political rhetoric from the 2008 presidential election against rationales for prison reentry reform and describes how treating prisoners humanely during incarceration and ensuring a more successful transition upon reentry is directly tied to the core moral principles of each party's base.

Keywords: prison reentry
