# H.R. 5107 (119th): Common-Sense Law Enforcement and Accountability Now in DC Act or the CLEAN DC Act

Common-Sense Law Enforcement and Accountability Now in DC Act or the CLEAN DC Act This bill repeals the Comprehensive Policing and Justice Reform Amendment Act of 2022, enacted by the Council of the District of Columbia. Any provision of law amended or repealed by that act is restored or revived as if it had not been enacted. (The act sets forth a variety of measures that focus on policing, including measures prohibiting the use of certain neck restraints by law enforcement officers, requiring additional procedures related to body-worn cameras, and expanding access to police disciplinary records.)

Polarity rationale: Reviewed enrichment (llm_import) polarity: The bill is a prudential policing dispute with real moral stakes on both sides. Repeal would remove restrictions on certain restraints and reduce disciplinary-record access, which bears on justice and accountability concerns. It also reverses a locally enacted public-safety framework and is not itself a direct advance of evil or a direct restraint of evil under the metadata provided.
Theological note: This bill bears on the protection of persons from excessive state force, the public accountability of armed officers, and the proper relation between federal and local government. Scripture grounds government's duty to restrain violence and do justice, and to avoid oppression, but the measure's specific effect on those goods depends on contested policing policy rather than a plain moral wrong.
