a prisoner in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons, or in the custody of the United States Marshals Service pursuant to section 4086, shall not be placed in restraints.

Unverified model/legacy excerpt; not proof. AI summary (separate from source): The First Step Act enacted a federal prohibition on restraining pregnant, laboring, and postpartum prisoners in BOP or U.S. Marshals custody, with exceptions. That partially delivers the anti-shackling component but does not fully cover broader state/local custody and care improvements for incarcerated mothers.
