Rep. Melissa Garff Ballard (R)

HB 248 (Inmate Amendments)

Libertas Institute supports this bill.

These bills help inmates take advantage of the educational opportunities afforded to them while in custody.

Libertas supports this bill. If we want to reduce recidivism, those in custody should be given the opportunity to choose a new path. Some of the responsibility lies with those who put them there to help forge a better future for them and society.
