D. C. Criminal Reforms to Immediately Make Everyone Safe Act of 2025

This bill would take away the Washington, D.C. government's ability to change its criminal sentencing laws after the bill is passed. It would lower the age for being considered a "youth offender" from 24 to 18, and it would remove the option for D.C. courts to give youth offenders sentences that are lighter than the minimum required by law. The bill would also require the D.C. Attorney General's office to post crime data about youth offenders on a public website and update it every month.
