District Attorneys 101

District attorneys control a majority of decisions in our criminal justice system, impacting everyone across the state. And because they are elected, they work for us.
But few Massachusetts voters know who they are, what they do, or that they are elected.
That's why the ACLU of Massachusetts launched the "What a Difference a DA Makes" campaign: To make sure you have the tools to hold your DA accountable.
