Mandatory Minimums

This was a paper I wrote about mandatory minimum sentencing laws in the United States and the impact they have had for a class final. It is written in APA format, which is why there are parentheses with sources at the end of some sentences. there is also a list of resources that I used at the bottom. Yes, it is long, it was ~6.5 pages long w/ a double-spaced 12 pt. Times New Roman font.

Laws exist to keep people from doing whatever they wish to keep everyone living in society safe and happy, and people have been arrested for breaking those laws since they were created around the 22nd century BC. Although the nature of some of those laws has changed, many of them still stay the same–don’t murder, don’t assault people, don’t steal, just to name a few. However, the punishments for such crimes look much different from what we see today. While some places here in the United States still have the death penalty, many states have abolished it–largely because many see it to be a cruel and unusual punishment, something prohibited by the Eighth Amendment to the United States Constitution–and mostly it is only carried out if the person has committed murder or treason, or something of a nature similar to those, which differs greatly from long ago (aclu.org). In many ancient cultures, people who committed theft and were caught could face a public beating, or even death, while today they would be sentenced to time in jail or prison. 

Jails and prisons are a way to keep criminals who have been convicted of a crime off the streets. It houses every type of criminal, some violent–like people who have committed murder, assault, or rape–and some not so violent–people who have committed theft or are found to be in possession of drugs. However, the United States has a problem. The United States holds about 4.2% of the world’s population, but it also holds at least 20% of the world’s prisoners. There are around 2.3 million inmates being housed in around 7,147 state and federal prisons, jails, correctional facilities, detention facilities, and many other facilities like those across the United States and its territories (Sawyer and Wagner, 2020). According to the U.S. Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Statistics, in 1979, there were 313,731 inmates across state and federal prisons in the United States, a number that increased by over 15,000 by 1980, following an upward trend in the number of inmates across the country (Kalish, 1981). By 1985, the number of sentenced prisoners was 481,616 (Minor-Harper, 1986), and by 1996, that number had skyrocketed to over 1.1 million–1,138,984 to be exact, according to Alfred Blumstein and Allen J. Beck’s Population Growth in U.S. Prisons, 1980-1996 (Blumstein and Beck, 1999). That number continued to increase, reaching around 2.3 million in 2020. The large increase in inmates was caused by a few policies implemented during the mid-to-late twentieth century–specifically around the 1970s and 1980s–that have continued to this day. Throughout the latter decades of the twentieth century, the United States heavily focused on the war on drugs, which eventually leads President Reagan to sign the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1986, which appropriated $1.7 billion to fight the drug war (NPR, 2007). However, that was not the only thing that the bill did. It also implemented mandatory minimums for drug-related offenses.

The Criminal Justice Policy Foundation states that “Mandatory minimum sentencing laws force a judge to hand down a minimum prison sentence based on the charges a prosecutor brings against a defendant which result in a conviction -- usually a guilty plea” (CJPF.org, paragraph 1). There are mandatory minimum sentences for a variety of different crimes–sex offenses, identity theft, illegal ownership or use of a firearm, and drug trafficking or possession. The minimum sentence given to someone found guilty for drug trafficking depends on what type of drug they had, how much of it they had, and whether they had been convicted of any prior drug felonies. In theory, giving different punishments for different situations makes sense, but in reality, the mandatory minimum policy in place has created a system that has allowed for thousands of people, especially people of color, to be locked away in prisons for years, and in some cases, for life.

Of the 2.3 million people currently incarcerated in the United States, around 450,000 of them are there because of drug-related charges (prisonpolicy.org). About 19.5% of people incarcerated in the United States are there because of drug-related charges, and that number will not be going down anytime soon unless something is done about it. Police across the United States make over 1 million drug possession arrests a year, many of which lead to prison sentences. And of course, because of the mandatory minimums, people of color, who disproportionately tend to be in the lower social classes, are largely the group who ends up going to prison for these drug-related crimes. Crack-cocaine and powder-cocaine are relatively similar, but with a few key differences. Powder cocaine was seen as a status symbol in the 1980s–it was seen as the fancy drug, the drug that rich people used–but crack cocaine was seen much differently–it was, and still is cheaper, and as a result, was used more by the lower classes. Because of this differing view, the mandatory minimum sentences differ, disproportionately affecting lower-income people.

For powder cocaine, you need 500 grams in order to get the mandatory minimum sentence of five years–unless you have previously been convicted of a drug felony, in which case the minimum is ten years. However, for crack cocaine, only 28 grams is needed for a person to get the mandatory minimum. And those are only the minimum sentences. People with no prior drug felonies who have the five-year minimum sentence also have a maximum sentence of 40 years, a number that increases to life imprisonment if someone has been convicted of a prior drug felony (United States Sentencing Commission, 2017). And as was mentioned previously, crack tends to be used by people of lower socioeconomic status–who are disproportionately people of color–because it’s cheaper, which leads to more and more people of color ending up in prisons with sentences of at least five-to-ten years. And while the mandatory minimum sentencing laws being discussed here are federal, states weren’t far behind in adopting their own versions. Mandatory minimum sentences, along with countless other policies and biases across the country, perpetuate a cycle of racist ideology that has lasted for hundreds of years. 

Another major issue with these mandatory minimum sentencing laws is that they took the sentencing power away from the judges–who are arguably the most neutral party in the courtroom–and given it to prosecutors. The Criminal Justice Policy Foundation states:

“The justice system has been distorted by removing from judges the power to decide the proper sentence in their cases. The sentencing process now involves the rote consideration of a matrix of impersonal data dominated by often irrelevant drug quantities and other circumstances that can be shaped by the prosecutor's charging choices. The elimination of judicial discretion in sentencing has allowed prosecutors to acquire excessive power to impose sentences.”

The problem is, overwhelmingly, most of the elected prosecutors in the United States are white and male (Reflective Democracy Campaign, 2015 & 2019). And most isn’t just a slight majority here–as of 2019, 95% of elected prosecutors are white and 73% are male. And because the United States has a tendency to be racist–shown by these mandatory minimums, no matter how much people like to deny that they are racist–these prosecutors are going to be more likely to ask for harsher sentences, are going to attempt to place more charges onto the defendant, and get them sent to prison for longer. With these mandatory minimums, we focused more on sending people to prison, especially people of color, instead of rehabilitation–getting people who are addicted to these drugs off of them so they can hopefully go on and have a more successful life. 

When mandatory minimums were first implemented, the United States was amid the war on drugs and was in an era where the stance of being tough on crime was normal. However, as previously mentioned, this war on drugs had heavy racist undertones, something confirmed in 1994 by former President Nixon’s counsel and assistant to the President for Domestic Affairs John Ehrlichman when he said:

“The Nixon campaign in 1968, and the Nixon White House after that, had two enemies: the antiwar left and Black people. You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or Black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and Blacks with heroin, and then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities. We could arrest their leaders, raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.” (eji.org, 2016)

However, just because something is broken, and has been broken for a long time, doesn’t mean that it cannot be fixed.

For starters, there is H. R.7194, also known as the Mandatory Minimum Reform Act of 2020, which was introduced to the House of Representatives by Representative Maxine Waters of California's 43rd congressional district on June 11, 2020 (congress.gov). In the bill's text, there is a sentence reading, “To eliminate mandatory minimum sentences for all drug offenses,” and also included is a list of amendments to a variety of sections of the Controlled Substances Act. Representative Waters isn’t the only one calling for the reform, or outright elimination of mandatory minimums. The American Civil Liberties Union, the Criminal Justice Policy Foundation, among many other groups are all in favor of reforming or eliminating mandatory minimum sentences. Alongside that, there have been some calls to release the people who were convicted of nonviolent drug offenses back into society, due to people knowing the reason behind the existence of the mandatory minimum, the fact that some drugs–marijuana in particular–are no longer being villainized like they used to, and that more people are understanding addiction and realize that sending people to prison doesn’t have the effect of stopping drug use people thought it did. 

However, just doing one, and not the other fails to completely solve the problem. If you release non-violent drug offenders but keep the mandatory minimums, the cycle is just going to continue, and hundreds of thousands of people, especially people of color, are going to be put back into prisons due to low-level drug offenses. If you get rid of the mandatory minimums but don’t release non-violent drug offenders, you still have hundreds of thousands of people who are serving potentially life sentences for just possessing drugs. Focusing on rehabilitation instead of sending people to prison would help to combat the system that has been in place for decades–a system that criminalizes people for needing help but not being able to get it. Not only would this help to reverse some of the damage done by racist policies that were put in place under the guise of being tough on crime, and it would also alleviate some of the tax burden on Americans or would allow for more money to be spent on social programs like drug rehabilitation programs. As of 2017, the United States allocated over $7 billion dollars to the federal prison budget, which exceeds the $5.5 billion allocated to care for all the homeless people in the United States (cjpf.org).

Another option–although it has a much lesser impact–is just to reform the mandatory minimum laws and not release anyone who has been previously convicted of a non-violent drug crime. Reforming the mandatory minimum laws would look more like changing the amount of a drug that is required to reach the mandatory minimum threshold or reducing the minimum sentence instead of just completely getting rid of them. The problem is, you would still have hundreds of thousands of people in prison for nonviolent drug offenses, and you would still allow a system to exist that disproportionately negatively affects people of color.

Overall, mandatory minimum sentencing laws negatively impact poorer people and people of color the most, causing hundreds of thousands of them to be sent to prison for years for what is, for many, just a nonviolent drug offense. People are being separated from their families and sent to prison, some for life, over policies that were created under the guise of being tough on crime, but were in actuality just inherently racist and playing off of the fears of white Americans, something that has been admitted by several people who worked in various presidential administrations or campaigns over the years. These laws need to be repealed, and the people who were convicted of nonviolent drug offenses need to be released in order for the United States to move forward and atone for its racist past. Without repealing the laws and releasing those people, we are allowing for a racist system that has profited off of people of color to stand and continue.

Are Home Prices Headed Toward Bubble Territory?

Talk of a housing bubble is beginning to crop up as home prices have appreciated at a rapid pace this year. This is understandable since the appreciation of residential real estate is well above historic annual averages. According to the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), annual appreciation since 1991 has averaged 3.8%. Here are the latest 2020 appreciation numbers from three reliable sources:

FHFA: 7.8%

CoreLogic: 7.3%

Case-Shiller: 7%

It’s easy to jump to the conclusion that house appreciation is out of control in today’s market. However, we need to put these numbers into context first.

Inflation and the Comeback from the Housing Crash

Following the housing crash, home values depreciated dramatically from 2007-2011. Values are still recovering from that unusually long period of falling prices. We must also realize that normal inflation has had an impact.

Original forecasts modeled this uncertainty, and they ranged anywhere from home values gaining 3% (Zelman & Associates) to home values depreciating by more than 6% (CoreLogic).

Greek Dip with Hummus and Tzatziki

<![CDATA[ .tasty-recipes-quick-links text-align:center; .tasty-recipes-quick-links a padding: 0.5rem; ]]>

This Greek dip has so much flavor, with a layer of smooth, savory hummus, a layer of cool, herby tzatziki, and toppings like feta cheese, chopped fresh cucumbers, sweet tomatoes, and briney capers and olives.

This post is sponsored by Stonyfield. All opinions are my own.

If you’ve had hummus—and I’m guessing you have—you know that it’s a chickpea purée with savory, slightly nutty flavor. Here I’ve paired it with Mediterranean staples like yogurt (tzatziki), feta, and fresh herbs to make one fragrant and flavorful Greek dip.

The rich hummus layer is balanced and brightened by the zippy yogurt tzatziki layer. If you’re not familiar with it, tzatziki is a mix of yogurt, grated cucumber, fresh mint, dill (optional), and garlic. It’s fragrant and refreshing and happens to be an excellent match for the toppings I use in this Greek dip: creamy crumbled feta cheese, chopped cucumber and sweet grape tomatoes for freshness, and briney capers and olives.

What Kind of Yogurt To Use for Tzatziki

Since the yogurt is the base of tzatziki, it matters which kind you use. You want a thick and creamy Greek yogurt with a smooth, mild tang. That signature tang is part of what makes Greek yogurt taste brighter and fresher than other kinds of yogurt (it’s also much thicker than traditional yogurt since it’s strained), and I really enjoy it, but sometimes nonfat Greek yogurt, specifically, is a little too tangy—so tangy that it flat-out overpowers other flavors and yogurt mix-ins. But not Stonyfield nonfat Greek yogurt. Stonyfield’s nonfat Greek yogurt is creamy and perfectly balanced, rich and refreshing without any sort of dominating tartness. When I first tried it, I went back to the fridge to check the container, thinking I had gotten whole milk yogurt by mistake—that’s how rich and creamy it is.

“Organic” Makes a Difference

Last month I took a three-day trip up to Vermont with Stonyfield—the brand whose yogurt I bought for the first time thirteen years ago, just after I had lost 135 pounds and started caring about what kinds of food I was putting into my body. And before I left for the trip, my best friend asked me if I was planning to tell the Stonyfield team that I was their number one consumer in 2006 and 2007 (and beyond, but we lived together in those years so she saw firsthand how obsessed I was with their yogurt). I laughed at the time she asked, but then yes of course I told them.

Truth is, there are three things I’ve always liked about Stonyfield’s yogurt: the taste, the simplicity of ingredients, and the fact that all of their yogurt is organic. Those first two are easy and understandable, but the third—the organic piece—is something that I didn’t know as much about as I thought I did, until I got the chance to explore the organic dairy farms that produce the milk Stonyfield uses to make their yogurts. Like a lot of us I’m sure, my concept of “organic” was more of a list of things that organic foods DON’T have.

NO toxic persistent pesticides NO synthetic fertilizers NO GMOs NO artificial growth hormones or antibiotics in the animals NO artificial colors NO artificial flavors NO artificial preservatives

There’s a lot more to it. During my time in Vermont, I visited two dairy farms: Wonder Why Farm and Molly Brook Farm—both of which are certified organic. You might have heard by now that when it comes to food, the word “Natural” has no regulated definition. “Organic,” on the other hand, is defined and regulated by the USDA—and that certification means a lot. From the land on which an organic product is grown to the producers growing it, from the post-harvest facilities preparing the product to the processing and handling facilities transforming the product, each step must be certified to federal organic standards. Once an operation is certified, organic producers and handlers undergo annual reviews and inspections.

Organic Milk from Organic Cows All certified organic dairy products come from cows that are pasture-raised. The organic milk in all of Stonyfield’s products comes from family farms with an average herd size of 75-90 cows.

The organic standard requires that all dairy cows get 30% of their Dry Matter Intake from pasture and actively graze at least 120 days a year. The farmers feed their livestock only organic feed, hay, or pasture and maintain conditions to accommodate the health and natural behavior of the animal. The animal welfare is the piece of the organic label that mattered most to me. I loved that visiting these farms allowed me to see these cows being treated well and hearing from the farmers that, as long as they come in to be milked regularly, the cows are free to pasture as much they like. (Bonus: when cows are actively grazing on pasture, their milk contains 62% higher levels of omega-3 fatty acids than conventional milk.)

Organic Farming and the Environment

Organic agriculture is based on practices that not only protect environmental health, but also strive to improve it. Organic farmers enrich soil and control pests with crop rotation, cover crops, beneficial insects, and compost. By prohibiting the use of petroleum-based fertilizers and absorbing carbon dioxide from the air, organic agriculture helps to reduce our carbon footprint and combat climate change.

My Takeaway

Stonyfield has integrity, a kind of integrity you hear about all the time from businesses and brands, but don’t often see put into practice. It’s clearer to me now than ever that they really do think about the impact of everything they do—from the care they provide to the farmer families and their cows to the ingredients in their yogurt, the packaging it’s in, and how it gets to our grocery stores. I can’t applaud that enough. They make me feel good about the products I’m choosing—especially the yogurt I’m giving to James (he’s a major fan of the YoBaby Veggie purple carrot flavor)—and I like knowing that when I buy their products, I’m in some incredibly small way supporting a greater wellness for all of us.
