AI Summary
This bill, the COVID-19 Safer Detention Act of 2021, aims to expand eligibility for and provide judicial review of the Elderly Home Detention Pilot Program, allow for compassionate release based on COVID-19 vulnerability, shorten the waiting period for judicial review during the COVID-19 pandemic, and make other technical corrections.
