Revises the Isolated Confinement Restriction Act to redefine vulnerable populations and isolated confinement, and adjust restrictions on confinement.
This bill revises the Isolated Confinement Restriction Act (ICRA) by redefining "member of a vulnerable population" and "isolated confinement." It allows inmates who are members of a vulnerable population to be placed in isolated confinement if they consent or pose a risk to themselves or others. It also removes restrictions on the maximum terms of confinement for repetitively violent inmates. The bill mandates that inmates in isolated confinement receive timely medical and mental health evaluations, and access to recreation, education, and social interaction.
