Haute News: Jay-Z’s Jacob & Co. Caviar Tourbillon World Timer Sold For $1.5 Million
On September 30th, Michael Rubin, the entrepreneur and co-owner of the Philadelphia 76ers, and music mogul Jay-Z teamed up to host the Reform Alliance’s Casino Night and Gala Event at Atlantic City’s Ocean Casino Resort. Reform Alliance, led by co-chairs Rubin, Jay-Z, and rapper Meek Mill, has a mission of transforming probation and parole laws across the United States, and the event was an opportunity to bring about real change.
The organization has already achieved significant milestones, securing the passage of 17 bipartisan bills in 11 states. These legislative victories have paved the way for nearly 700,000 individuals to transition from the daunting system of mass incarceration and mass supervision to a life marked by employment, well-being, and stability.
