The pressure mounted as the calls from Black Lives Matter for greater racial equality gained more support last summer in the wake of the death of George Floyd, a US citizen, while under arrest by police.

The two states join the District of Columbia in announcing increased availability this week, moving the entire Washington region to the next phase of distribution.
