AUTOMATED SUMMARY

A House Judiciary Committee interim staff report says New York City's elected district attorneys steered prosecutors toward reduced or alternative charges for noncitizen defendants. The report names the DAs of Manhattan, the Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn and Staten Island, and it draws on 2019 training materials and internal emails.

The Bronx and Queens offices are the focus of the most serious allegations. Queens DA Melinda Katz initially refused the committee's request, arguing that state prosecutions fall outside congressional oversight, and complied only after an August letter warned of a possible subpoena.
