ADVOCACYDC JUSTICE LAB WAS A FRONTRUNNER IN ADVOCATING FOR POLICY CHANGE. WE PLAYED AN INSTRUMENTAL ROLE IN MONUMENTAL OVERHAULS OF THE DISTRICT'S CRIMINAL CODE, FORENSIC LAB, JAIL OVERSIGHT MECHANISM, AND CRIMINAL RECORD SEALING PROCESS. WE SUCCESSFULLY ADVOCATED FOR AN AUDIT OF THE METROPOLITAN POLICE DEPARTMENT, LIMITS ON POLICE AUTHORITY, AND PUBLIC ACCESS TO DISCIPLINARY RECORDS. WE CONTINUED PUSHING FOR A BAN ON SOLITARY CONFINEMENT, DECRIMINALIZATION OF STREET VENDING, NUTRITIOUS FOOD IN JAILS, AND A REPARATIONS TASK FORCE. THE D.C. COUNCIL ADOPTED THREE OF OUR RECOMMENDATIONS TO MAKE THE LAWMAKING PROCESS MORE ACCESSIBLE FOR PUBLIC PARTICIPATION, MORE TRANSPARENT, AND MORE INCLUSIVE.
