AI Summary

This bill amends a provision of the Second Chance Act of 2007 to allow the time an elderly offender must serve before being eligible for home detention to be reduced by any good time credits earned under Section 3624(b) of Title 18 of the United States Code. This would allow elderly offenders to become eligible for home detention sooner by having their time served reduced by the amount of good time credits they have earned.
