Raise The Threshold

Felony theft thresholds are the dollar amount that determines when a theft becomes a felony. These amounts are dangerously low across the country and seriously outdated.

 
 

#RaiseTheThreshold is a project of Campaign Zero, a national platform of data-driven policy solutions to end police violence in America.

The project focuses on how in almost every state, you could face a year or more in prison plus a lifetime of felony consequences for one small mistake.

 
 
 
 

Campaign Impact
