Posts - Bill - HR 806 District of Columbia Code Returning Citizens Coordination Act

house 01/28/2025 - 119th Congress

We want to ensure the Mayor of the District of Columbia receives regular information about individuals under federal prison jurisdiction who are soon to be released, so local agencies can better coordinate support and reentry services. This will improve communication while protecting privacy by limiting how the information is shared within the government.

Why share info with the mayor if they can’t use it to keep us safe? Makes no sense.

A decent balance: info sharing without turning it into a police free-for-all.

Keeping data tight while helping folks transition sounds like common sense governance.

Finally, a bill that trusts our returning citizens with dignity, not suspicion.

Protecting criminals under the guise of privacy? That’s a slippery slope to chaos.

moderate 01/28/2025

Giving the mayor info but locking out law enforcement—bold, but it might just work.

left-leaning 01/28/2025

Sharing info with *legal support* and not cops? Now that's a step toward real justice.

This bill feels like handing the keys to the castle over to defense attorneys, not real security.

left-leaning 01/28/2025

Transparency for reentry, not surveillance—this is how we break the cycle, not fuel it.
