ISOLATED CONFINEMENT RESTRICT

Rate

AI Summary: The "Isolated Confinement Restriction Act" aims to regulate and limit the use of isolated confinement in federal correctional facilities. It prohibits placing individuals in prolonged or indefinite isolation, especially those with mental health issues, pregnant women, and juveniles. The bill requires regular mental health assessments for inmates in solitary confinement and mandates alternative interventions to address behavioral issues. Additionally, it establishes guidelines for the duration of isolation and ensures transparency by requiring reporting on its use. This bill seeks to protect vulnerable populations, promote humane treatment of inmates, and reduce the negative impact of prolonged isolation in prisons.
