NYC lawmakers ban solitary confinement in its city jails
"New York City lawmakers on Wednesday approved a bill to largely ban the practice of solitary confinement in its city jails, a major victory for prisoner advocates that comes in the wake of increased scrutiny on inmate deaths.
The City Council's decision, which succeeded on a 39-7 vote, faces opposition from Mayor Eric Adams, who told reporters this week that while he doesn't believe in solitary confinement, he also doesn't "like" the bill in its current form.
But even if Adams, a Democrat, chooses to veto the measure, it has support from more than two-thirds of New York City's 51-seat legislative body who signed on as co-sponsors. That means such a supermajority can override any veto, and Council Speaker Adrienne Adams said Wednesday she would pursue that route if necessary."
