We are working to update existing law to give the Civil Rights Cold Case Records Review Board stronger authority to access and share government records on unsolved civil rights cases, ensuring these important documents are more readily available to the public. This includes extending the board’s operation and helping state and local governments with associated costs to improve transparency and historical understanding.
