Kamala Harris

Very strongly agree

Yes, but only if the crimes are non-violent

Harris has a record of supporting restorative justice and diversion programs specifically for non-violent crimes. Her 'Back on Track' initiative and her public statements as Senator and Vice President have emphasized alternatives to incarceration for non-violent offenses, while maintaining a tougher stance on violent crime. This answer most closely aligns with her historical positions.

Agree

No, provide restorative justice programs in addition to incarceration, not as an alternative

Harris has often framed restorative justice as a complement to, rather than a replacement for, incarceration, especially for more serious crimes. She has supported expanding access to such programs within the criminal justice system, suggesting she would agree with providing restorative justice in addition to incarceration, but her record shows more enthusiasm for alternatives for non-violent offenders.

Agree

Yes

Kamala Harris has expressed support for restorative justice programs and criminal justice reform, but she has generally advocated for these programs as part of a broader approach rather than as a full alternative to incarceration. As California Attorney General and later as a Senator, she supported diversion programs and alternatives to incarceration, especially for non-violent offenses, but has not called for eliminating incarceration in favor of restorative justice across the board.

Harris has consistently supported the implementation of restorative justice programs and other alternatives to incarceration, particularly for non-violent offenders. She launched the 'Back on Track' program in San Francisco, which focused on rehabilitation rather than jail time for first-time, non-violent drug offenders. She would strongly disagree with a blanket rejection of restorative justice.

The Democratic Party has historically supported criminal justice reform and alternatives to incarceration, emphasizing rehabilitation over punishment. Prominent Democratic leaders and lawmakers have advocated for restorative justice programs as part of broader criminal justice reform efforts. For example, during the 2020 presidential election, the Democratic Party platform included commitments to reform the criminal justice system, which could encompass support for restorative justice initiatives. Moreover, Democratic-led cities and states have experimented with restorative justice programs, indicating a party-wide inclination towards such policies.

Given the Democratic Party's recent history and policy platforms that emphasize criminal justice reform, it is unlikely that the party would broadly oppose the implementation of restorative justice programs. While there may be individual Democrats who are skeptical of or oppose such measures, the party as a whole has shown a clear interest in exploring alternatives to incarceration. This includes support for policies that aim to reduce recidivism, address the root causes of crime, and rehabilitate offenders, all of which are aligned with the principles of restorative justice.
