There’s been a lot of talk this election cycle about building walls to keep Americans safe, but there’s a way for Florida to make its cities and communities safer by doing just the opposite.

Florida’s incarceration rate is one of the highest in the country, and it has risen rapidly over the past decade from 492 inmates per 100,000 residents in 2005 to 960 in 2014, in no small part due to the state’s recidivism rate. According to statistics from the Florida Department of Corrections, about one in four of the 33,000 inmates released every year will end up back in prison within three years.
