AI Summary

This bill directs the Oregon Criminal Justice Commission (CJC) to conduct a comprehensive study examining how different types of criminal sentences impact recidivism rates, which measure how often individuals who have been convicted of a crime go on to commit additional crimes after being sentenced. The commission is required to prepare a report, which may include legislative recommendations, and submit it to the interim judiciary committees of the Oregon Legislative Assembly by September 15, 2026. The bill includes a sunset provision that automatically repeals the study requirement on January 2, 2027, meaning the study and related mandate will automatically expire on that date. The goal of the study appears to be gathering data that could help policymakers understand which sentencing approaches might be most effective at reducing repeat criminal behavior, potentially informing future criminal justice policy decisions.
