4:36Now PlayingUS President Joe Biden has commuted sentences for 37 inmates from death penalty to life imprisonment.

The move is likely to frustrate incoming president Donald Trump, who restarted federal executions during his first term following a 20-year pause. Biden ran for office opposing the death penalty.
For more on this, we talk to Robin M. Maher. She is the Executive Director of the Death Penalty Information Center, a national non-profit organization which provides analysis on issues concerning capital punishment and the people it affects.
