Help Preserve Police Misconduct Complaint Records

Take Action Now!

We need your help. Decades of records detailing allegations and investigations of police misconduct are at risk of destruction.

These records are important because they can:

help exonerate the wrongfully convicted
offer unique insights into patterns of police misconduct
distinguish problem officers from good ones

If these records are destroyed, this crucial information is gone forever.

House bill 6266a3 and Senate bill 2233a2 - bills to preserve these records - are sidetracked in committee. Lawmakers have only until the end of May to take action before they lose the opportunity to enact a policy to preserve the records.

Contact your elected officials right now and demand they take action to preserve police misconduct complaint records!
