Introduced in the Senate

Nov. 8, 2018

Introduced by Sen. Steve Bieda (D-9)

To allow prisoners to earn from 5 to 15 days per year of time off their sentence for each month of good behavior. This would restore an older "good time" system which was eliminated for violent felons by Ballot Proposal B of 1978, and subsequently eliminated for all felons in 1987.
