S. 2815: Just Incarceration of Criminal Elements in D.C. Act
This bill, known as the Just Incarceration of Criminal Elements in D.C. Act, aims to repeal two existing laws in the District of Columbia: the Incarceration Reduction Amendment Act and the Second Look Amendment Act.
These laws currently allow for some individuals convicted of crimes to potentially have their sentences reduced or reconsidered under specific circumstances. By repealing these laws, the bill intends to eliminate certain opportunities for early release or sentence revision for those incarcerated for violent crimes.
Additionally, the bill establishes new provisions for funding. Starting in fiscal year 2026, it mandates the Office of Victim Services and Justice Grants to provide annual grants, up to $200,000 each, to organizations that assist survivors of violent crimes. These grants are designated for services such as advocacy, mental health support, and employment assistance for survivors.
Overall, the bill focuses on maintaining stricter incarceration policies while also enhancing support for victims of violent crimes through financial assistance to relevant organizations.
