Bonnie Watson Coleman Applauds Historic Biden Administration Commutations Following Years of Advocacy | 2024-12-12 | 2024 | 2024-12 | Democrat | House | NJ | Bonnie Watson Coleman | W000822 | watsoncoleman.house.gov | watsoncoleman | https://watsoncoleman.house.gov/newsroom/press-releases | scraper | Today, Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (NJ-12) celebrated the announcement from the Biden Administration that the President has issued commutations for 1,500 individuals serving home confinement sentences for non-violent infractions. “For years, Rep. Cori Bush and I have been pushing for the Biden Administration to commute the sentences of folks on home confinement from the CARES Act,” said Rep. Watson Coleman. “These people pose no threat to society, have reunited with their families, and make meaningful contributions to their communities. It is a significant act of humanitarianism from the Biden Administration, and I am so pleased they have done the right thing for these people, and their families.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T22:13:55Z |
