Bowser announces youth curfew in DC

DC News Now coverage of the youth curfew in DC:

Penelope Spain, the co-founder of the Open City Advocates which represents youth in the juvenile justice system, said she does not think curfews will work. “I understand that people are concerned about crime. I understand the desire to feel safe in our city, but the mayor’s curfew initiative are backwards in thinking,” she said. “They employ tactics from decades ago that have been proven time and again to be ineffective and counterproductive.”
