How can your vote help end mass incarceration? We’ve put together a guide to how elected offices — local, state, and federal — all have a role to play in dismantling the injustices of the criminal legal system. From county auditors to judges to state and federal representatives, our guide is meant to help readers understand both what’s at stake in elections and how to hold elected officials accountable.
Learn about the national prison crisis and how we can begin to turn the tide on mass incarceration. Then, drill down to your state. Be sure to also check out our pages focused on D.C., and the incarceration of Native people.
If our work is new to you, you might want to check out our 2022-2023 annual report.
