13 carjackings in 1D last month. 1D in DC = Congress + Supreme Court + surrounding neighborhoods. 2 for the same period last year. A 550% increase. Washington DC has a violent crime problem. #DCCriminalCode

Just thanked @MayorBowser @MurielBowser. Thanked her for recognizing flaws in bill passed unanimously last week by the DC Council. Rapists and murderers should serve their full prison sentences. #DCCriminalCode
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser told reporters Wednesday she’s “not likely” to sign a bill the D.C. Council passed unanimously Tuesday that updated the D.C. Criminal Code for the first time since 1901. WATCH: @SamFord7News reports: https://t.co/4XzZcyB8on

DC Council unanimously voted on bill enabling early release of rapists. Congress is preparing to review the bill. As a locally elected DC Democrat, I encourage Senate Democrats to clearly state that rapists should serve their full prison sentences. #DCCriminalCode
I’ll soon introduce a bill that would stop this insane move and put every Democrat in the senate on record about reducing sentences for convicted criminals.

Yesterday the DC Council unanimously voted on a bill that enables the early release of rapists and murderers from prison. Rape and murder are violent crimes and the individuals who commit these crimes should serve their full sentences. #DCCriminalCode
Yesterday, the Council voted unanimously to approve on first vote the Revised Criminal Code Act - a historic effort modernizing & organizing DC’s criminal code involving all the partners in our criminal justice system. I’m sure you’ve got questions. Buckle up for a long 🧵:

.@AGKarlRacine the criminal code we were relying on is old as dirt, and old as dirt isn’t just. Think about where we were in 1902 - before people of color and women able to freely contribute to legislative process and contribute to the code’s development. #DCCriminalCode

I guess the #DCCriminalCode is not working? Or at least not yet? Three shootings in one night and that’s just what we saw on the news. What’s your opinion or suggestions?

For 8 years as an ANC, I’ve advocated for sexual harassment and sexual assault victims. I oppose the @charlesallen #DCCriminalCode changes b/c rapists should serve their full prison sentences.

The DC Council voted today on a bill that enables rapists and murderers to be released early from prison. @charlesallen calls the bill a “monumental, consequential piece of legislation.” I call it a failure of leadership. #DCCriminalCode
DC Council unanimously says yes on first vote on new criminal code. The US Attorney still objects to lowering maximum sentences for carjackings and robberies, though council says new code matches actual sentences currently being handed down in DC courts.
