As a Texan — please tell me what I can do to try to change this? I’m already voting. Is there a legal non profit I can donate to that is suing to change this?
Slightly related, but mailing prisoners lwould be great. Even if one correspence with one prisoner you send once a couple months, it really improves the mental health of people in prison for a long time, most often family and friends have forgotten about/abandoned them, and having someone on the outside to occasionally talk to can be such a relief.
This is where you can report the prisons that are cooking people alive. They might already be aware of it since it hit the news though. Or you can report Texas for any of other civil rights violations they’ve been committing recently. It might not accomplish much, but they at least deserve to be investigated for their disturbing activity.
Also, I feel like people in general should be aware that government website exists. I didn’t know about it until just now. Knowledge is power and all that.

I don’t know anything about them, but found these that you can donate and volunteer for: https://www.tpcadvocates.org/ https://tifa.org/ https://www.texasjailproject.org/
Donating to and canvassing for politicians that would change this could also help.
Supporting good journalism can also help. I really like the Texas Observer.
Thank you!
