Overview
This bill amends the law to increase the size of the Criminal Sentencing and Disposition Commission and broaden its reporting duties. Specifically, it expands the commission’s membership to include representatives from the Legislative Black and Latino Caucuses, and adds two additional public members. The commission is now tasked with reviewing criminal sentencing provisions, considering disparities in the criminal justice system, and making recommendations for revisions to sentencing laws. These recommendations should address public safety, offender accountability, crime reduction, and offender rehabilitation.
