A SAFER, STRONGER DC

 

There is nothing more important than the safety of every DC resident and Mayor
Bowser has set clear priorities for reducing crime, gun violence, and juvenile
crime to create a safer strong Washington, DC. This means ensuring all residents
are safe, victims of violent crime experience justice, and those that harm our
community are held accountable.

THE SECURE DC OMNIBUS AMENDMENT ACT OF 2024 (SECURE DC)

On January 10, 2024, Councilmember Brooke Pinto introduced the Secure DC Omnibus
Amendment Act of 2024 (Secure DC) which includes most of the Mayor's Safer,
Stronger 2.0 legislation and ACT Now legislation.

Secure DC is commonsense legislation that holds criminals accountable, supports
MPD officers, and rebalances DC’s public safety and justice system.

THE ADDRESSING CRIME TRENDS NOW ACT (ACT NOW) OF 2023

On October 23, 2023, Mayor Muriel Bowser announced the Addressing Crime Trends
Now Act (ACT Now), new legislation that will address recent public safety
challenges by giving law enforcement more tools to hold criminals accountable
and keep neighborhoods safe. By adding more tools while also amending provisions
of the Comprehensive Policing and Justice Amendment Act, the legislation will
also help create an environment that better supports communities and victims as
well as the Metropolitan Police Department’s (MPD) ability to hire and retain
highly qualified officers.

THE SAFER STRONGER AMENDMENT ACT OF 2023

2023 as well as issued a Mayor’s Order directing deputy mayors to submit
recommendations for a whole-of-government approach to crime reduction.

   proposals from Bowser would help D.C. fight violent crime"

The commonsense legislation Mayor Bowser sent to the DC Council will:
 * Enhance penalties for violent crimes that victimize or target vulnerable
   residents with physical or mental impairments as well as expanded protections
   for transit and for-hire vehicle employees, transit passengers, and people at
   rec centers.
 * Increase penalties for illegal gun possession.
 * Make strangulation a type of felony assault (strangulation is a key indicator
   that domestic violence will become deadly).
 * Strengthen provisions that allow individuals to petition for early release to
   ensure the voices of victims and community receive proper consideration.
 * Provide greater discretion for the Courts to determine who should be held
   pre-trial, including defendants previously convicted of a violent crime while
   they await trial for a new violent crime.
 * Increase the reimbursement for the District’s popular Private Security Camera
   System Incentive Program which strengthens public safety by increasing the
   network of cameras available to assist MPD in solving crimes and closing
   cases.  
 * Require the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council to report more data on
   process and outcomes.
 * Propose collecting DNA earlier in the process for First Degree sexual
   offenses after the probable cause hearing.

   data collected from any detection device necessary in conducting a criminal
   law enforcement investigation.
