Newly Uncovered Video: Fetterman Wants To Release "One-Third" Of Prisoners

Rapid Response

As a surge of robberies, sexual assaults, and murders plague communities across the United States, Pennsylvania Democrat John Fetterman has a plan to make it worse: release one-third of prisoners.

In 2020, Fetterman repeatedly endorsed releasing a third of Pennsylvania’s prison population, claiming “everyone is safer or better off” with more convicts on the street.

Fetterman doesn’t want to stop there. While Fetterman attempts to “reimagine” policing in America, he also wants to reduce sentences for violent criminals — even those convicted of second-degree murder. 

But it’s not just Fetterman’s agenda that’s dangerous, it’s his record:

  • As the chair of the state Board of Pardons, Fetterman “voted to release more criminals sentenced to life in prison than any other member of the panel.”
  • Fetterman’s appointee to the Board of Pardons was a “disarm the police” activist who called for abolishing life sentences for first degree murderers. 
  • In 2020, Fetterman attacked a judge for setting bail too high for rioters charged with felony arson. 
  • Fetterman openly admitted “sanctuary cities is another policy that I very much support.”

Does Fetterman sound like a man you can trust to keep your family safe? No.
