It's estimated that hundreds of thousands of rape kits sit untested in police department and crime lab storage facilities across the country. This means that DNA evidence that could be used to solve and prevent crimes isn't being made available.

End the Backlog is a campaign to get all states to put in place the necessary legislation and policies to eliminate the backlog of untested kits and ensure kits are tested in a timely fashion going forwards.

Now that the 2021 legislative sessions have begun in most states, state lawmakers have already introduced hundreds of bills aimed at election procedures and voter access. Some of them are good and will make it easier for people to vote; some of them are bad and will make voting harder or will disenfranchise people.

The Brennan Center has done a round-up of all the new bills so you can check out what's going on in your state and contact your state reps to encourage them to either oppose or support the bills they'll be voting on.
