Statement to the House Judiciary Subcommittee on Crime on Effects of Overcriminalization (May 2025)

Chairman Biggs, Ranking Member McBath, and distinguished members of this Subcommittee, thank you for holding this hearing on the topic of overcriminalization. As you know, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers has been working on this issue for over a decade and its work was instrumental in inspiring one of the earliest hearings on this issue, held by this Subcommittee, in 2010 on a bipartisan basis, as well as the full Judiciary Committee’s formation of the bipartisan Over-Criminalization Task Force a few years later in 2013.
