What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, all money delivered to a prison for a prisoner may be used

only under the direction of the superintendent or warden and only to pay certain

surcharges, to pay victim restitution, or for the benefit of the prisoner. This bill

requires that any federal COVID recovery rebates received by a person who is

incarcerated in this state must be used to pay any restitution the person has been

ordered to pay.
