What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Corrections to contract with no fewer than

three vendors to provide hobby, religious, and other personal property items for sale

to inmates in state correctional institutions. Under the bill, DOC must allow an

inmate, or a third party on behalf of an inmate, to purchase the items and must give

inmates equal access to all vendors that DOC contracts with for this purpose. The

bill also specifies that DOC must ensure that at least one of the vendors offers a

storefront in the city of Milwaukee where a third party may place an order for items

to be delivered to an inmate.
