District of Columbia · 2025-2026 Regular Session
As introduced Bill 26-28 would prohibit segregated confinement in jails and limit the use of safe cells. It would require that incarcerated people with mental health emergencies receive the care to which they are entitled. The Department of Corrections is required to create a plan to eliminate segregated confinement and report to the Council the impacts of doing so.
