The correct answer is the Fair Sentencing Act. It was passed in 2010 to address the sentencing disparities between crack cocaine offenders and powder cocaine offenders. Prior to its enactment, the Anti-Drug Abuse Act of 1988 had established significantly harsher penalties for crack cocaine offenses compared to powder cocaine offenses. The Crack Cocaine Act and the Truth in Sentencing Act are not directly related to the correction of sentencing disparities between these two types of drug offenses.
