What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

This bill requires the Department of Corrections and county sheriffs to provide

every inmate being held in a state correctional institution or county house of

correction with three hours per week of outdoor time, unless the inmate is being held

in the Milwaukee secure detention facility, in which case the three-hour per week

requirement does not apply until the inmate's 91st day of holding at that institution.
