President Trump on Thursday held a listening session on prison reform which covered how to address mass incarceration in the United States as well as how to reduce the rate of recidivism. Trump added that he wants those in prison to be able to contribute to society once they leave. Trump discussed potential changes to the prison system with lawmakers and Cabinet members at Camp David earlier in the month. “I think that the time is so right for really great and significant dialogue on prison reform,” Rollins told Fox News ahead of the meeting. “His big effort has been on sentencing but we’re talking about prison reform,” she said.
