What is the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act?
a.

This law deals with a wide ranging array of issues, some specific to terrorism, other more broadly related to criminal procedure issues such as procedures to reform habeus corpus proceedings to lessen the amount of time death row inmates can spend appealing their sentences. c. It attempted to clarify the relationship between counterterrorism response and emergency management by designating lead agencies for crisis management (Federal Bureau of Investigation) and consequence management (FEMA) in response to dealing with a terrorist attack. d. It responded to concerns following the Oklahoma City bombing and the sarin gas attacks about the poor state of capabilities in the U.S to deal with WMD attacks, especially at the state level.
