HR 3353

This bill, the Lieutenant Osvaldo Albarati Stopping Prison Contraband Act, increases the criminal penalties for providing cell phones to incarcerated individuals. Specifically, it raises the potential prison sentence for those who give or attempt to give a phone to someone in prison, particularly if the intent is to facilitate illegal activities. The bill also directs the Bureau of Prisons to review and update its policies regarding prohibited objects within correctional facilities. This aims to enhance security and protect both inmates and staff.
