Resolved: The United States Federal Government should significantly reform its policies regarding convicted prisoners under federal jurisdiction
Case Summary: The AFF plan creates a Bureau of Prisons “Ombudsman” (or expands the existing Ombudsman) position to deal with complaints from prisoners. AFF believes that abuses are getting hidden in SQ and there needs to be an independent mechanism to bring attention to problems in federal prisons. An “ombudsman” is like a mediator who works between people who have a problem and the organization to resolve issues and investigate complaints. AFF cites Washington State (in 1AC) as well as Nebraska and Alaska (backup evidence) as success stories. That’s why we have these states specifically in the brief as “not success” stories.
