H.R. 4922
Limits D.C.'s power over criminal sentencing laws
Stops the District of Columbia from changing its criminal sentences, lowers the top age for being treated as a youth offender from 24 to 18, and requires juvenile crime data to be posted online.
- D.C. could not pass laws changing criminal sentences that were in effect when this bill became law
- The oldest age for youth offender status would drop from 24 to 18
- Courts could no longer sentence a youth offender to less than the required minimum
- The D.C. attorney general would post youth offender crime data online and update it each month
