UPDATE: 

My Grandmother passed away November 4th 2022. I was never allowed the opportunity to see her. I will still be trying to end banishment as punishment for nonviolent crimes. No one should be forcefully separated from family members. In order to help achieve this, ending banishment would be a step. Please support this petition by sharing to social media and with family. If you can make a donation to the petition on change.org to build momentum on signatures I would be very grateful.
