Resolved: The United States Federal Government should significantly reform its policies regarding convicted prisoners under federal jurisdiction

Case Summary: The AFF plan reduces or eliminates the use of solitary confinement in federal prisons. This is a huge crisis because 1/5 of 1% of all federal inmates are held in solitary, and of those, 15% of them are held for more than 90 days!  So, this case deals with a total of 0.03% of all federal prisoners.  It’s a waste because our focus should be on the safety of the staff, not making prisoners more comfortable.
