Justice In Policing

America is in the midst of a national crisis. Time and time again, we see tragedies as a result of unchecked police violence, followed by predictable outrage and condemnation but little else.

The 2020 killing of George Floyd sparked national protests in all 50 states calling for an end to police brutality against Black communities and other communities of color, demanding accountability in every sector of law enforcement.

The Lawyers’ Committee is taking legal action across the country to hold law enforcement accountable and fight for equality in the criminal justice system. Stand with us to fight for justice.
