Prison reform solutions often focus on the federal government, but the vast majority of incarcerated people are held in facilities controlled by state and local governments, according to the Prison Policy Initiative.


The nonpartisan think tank found that more than 1.3 million people are held in state prisons, while more than 600,000 people behind bars are in one of the country’s 3,000+ local jails.


These jails – sometimes dubbed the “front door” of the criminal justice system – often hold people who haven’t yet been convicted of a crime.
