DESCRIPTION: &nbsp;In the last few election cycles, a number of progressive prosecutors have been elected in places like Chicago, Orlando, Philadelphia, and St. Louis, joining the ranks of progressive prosecutors in other cities. Reform-minded attorneys are also serving as line prosecutors in federal and state prosecutor offices across the country. These attorneys, many of whom are men and women of color, are seeking to leverage their roles as prosecutors to combat racial and economic disparities in the criminal justice system.&nbsp;\n\nJoin the ACS Tampa Lawyer Chapter and the ACS Stetson University College of Law Student Chapter for a discussion with Hon.&nbsp;Aramis Ayala&nbsp;and others to hear about how prosecutors can use their discretion and influence to pursue racial and economic justice. What constraints, both legal and systemic, limit a prosecutor’s ability to achieve reform? What are the ethical obligations to pursue prosecutions, even in cases where the law disparately impacts people of color or the economically vulnerable?\n\nFeaturing:\n\nHon. Aramis Ayala, State Attorney, Ninth Judicial Circuit Court of Florida\n\n\nAs the nation’s leading progressive legal organization, ACS is committed to ensuring that all aspects of our events are accessible and enjoyable for all. If you require any accommodations, please contact us either at&nbsp;LCemails@acslaw.org.\n\n\nFor details, click here: https://getinvolved.acslaw.org/component/events/event/470
