ReThink Justice New Visions Committee Testimony on Local Control of Parole to DC Council

The ReThink Justice New Visions Committee has been very active advocating to get the District government to move for without delay to take action to assume control of the parole function which now rests with the United States Parole Commission (USPC). Malcolm Young, Co-Chair, New Visions Committee, with the assistance of other committee participants, submitted testimony to the D.C. Council Committee of the Whole for its consideration of the District’s FY 2021 budget asking for $100,000 to be added to the budget “to develop a blueprint or to prepare the legislation required to assume control of the parole function.”
