The United States shares the distinction of government-sponsored killing with infamous dictatorships – North Korea, Iran, Iraq, Libya, China, Saudi Arabia, Somalia. Other nations including Egypt, Sudan, Yemen, Belarus, and Afghanistan continue the practice of execution.

Imagine a justice system that heals instead of kills. A system that repairs and prevents trauma — not one that causes it.
The death penalty, police violence, mass incarceration — these have no place in that vision.
Supporters of the death penalty say it is “for the victims.” But you and I know better. Executions don’t offer healing, and many survivors say it compounds their trauma and makes things worse.
Together, we can realize our vision of a country whose justice brings us repair, not punishment and cruelty. Please join us once again in this fight and renew your gift to EJUSA today. Help out Now

Over the past decade you’ve helped us make tremendous progress as state after state repeals the death penalty. Last year, New Hampshire. This year, Colorado. We can’t let up now. Repeal in Wyoming and Ohio may be next.
Let us not just imagine our nation without the death penalty. Let’s make it happen. Act now to stop this extreme instrument of violence and racism.
