New York City moves to end most uses of solitary confinement
Thursday, 21 December 2023 The New York City Council voted to ban most uses of solitary confinement in city jails, setting up a clash with Mayor Eric Adams, who opposes the ban and plans to veto it. The ban is seen as a pivotal moment in the national movement to make jails more humane. The United Nations has called solitary confinement torture, and research links it to increased risks of mental illness, self-harm, and suicide. Black and Latino people are disproportionately affected by the practice. Supporters of the ban vow to override the mayor's veto.
