Watch Johnny Perez, the Director of NRCAT’s U.S. Prisons Program, as he shares about the importance of the newly introduced federal bill, the End Solitary Confinement Act.

In July 2023, Rep. Cori Bush and other Members of the House introduced the End Solitary Confinement Act, a groundbreaking bill that would end solitary confinement in federal prisons, immigration detention centers, and other federal and federally contracted facilities. You can help build support for the bill by writing to your Representative asking them to cosponsor the End Solitary Confinement Act.
