Rethinking Federal Sentencing Policy

In honor of the 25th anniversary of the Sentencing Reform Act, the Congressional Black Caucus Community Re-Investment Taskforce is hosting a sentencing symposium, entitled "Rethinking Federal Sentencing Policy, 25th Anniversary of the Sentencing Reform Act."  We would be honored if you would attend the sentencing symposium. The event is scheduled to take place on June 24 at 4:45 p.m. in the U.S. Capitol Visitor Center, Orientation Theater South, Washington, D.C.

 


Prior to the event there is Reception in the Capitol Visitor Center at 4:00 p.m. in HVC 200 for Members, staff, participants and selected guests.

Confirmed participants:

It is a dynamic and complex time for the criminal justice system and for sentencing in particular.  America has entered a period of hopefulness with great expectations for change. Your participation will help shape what we believe will be an important review of the Sentencing Reform Act.
