Families of incarcerated people gathered outside Joyce Kilmer Park to call for parole justice Sunday. 
They say they are supporting parole justice, which includes two bills---Elder Parole and Fair and Timely Parole.

The Fair and Timely Parole bill provide parole reviews for those who are eligible for parole.
