Allows certain juveniles who are at least 16 years old and accused of one of five specified serious crimes to be prosecuted directly in federal district court without requiring a formal transfer motion from the Attorney General. The change shortens a procedural step that previously required the Attorney General to seek or approve transfer for federal prosecution of these older juveniles accused of the listed offenses.
Read twice and referred to the Committee on the Judiciary.
