This legislative proposal seeks to strengthen legal protections for Bureau of Prisons correctional officers by increasing the penalties for assault against them. It specifically amends Section 111 of title 18, United States Code, which outlines offenses against federal officers. Under the proposed changes, any violation of this section involving an assault on a correctional officer would result in a doubling of the maximum term of imprisonment . Furthermore, the bill stipulates that the applicable maximum fine for such assaults must be adjusted proportionally to reflect the increased severity of the offense. This measure is intended to deter assaults and provide greater accountability for those who harm correctional staff.
